| Shiraishi joined the investigation of Australian Neoproterozoic strata conducted by Prof. Kano and Dr. Tsuihiji. First, we visited Brachina Gorge. There were signs so it was easy to find. On the right are stromatolites from the Trezona Formation. | |
 |
 |
| To the west is the GSSP defining the base of the Ediacaran, which is the boundary between the tillite during the snowball Earth and the subsequent cap carbonates. | |
 |
 |
| Further west, we come to the Ediacaran-Cambrian boundary, where I'm standing. Indeed, we can see structures appear to be burrows in the Cambrian. | |
 |
 |
| We travel to the village of Parachilna to observe fossils of the Ediacaran fauna. | |
 |
 |
| During the investigation, we rented a house and cooked our own meals. | |
