Burgess Shale

   ( 6 )
The famous Burgess Shale of British Columbia contains an exceptionally well preserved Cambrian fauna. This group of animals, which are preserved primarily as carbon films, is one of the earliest nearly complete record of the age of complex life, and opens a window into an ecosystem that died out hundreds of millions of years ago.
