Distinguishing Features

Biologically influenced mineralization either on the surfaces of, or in close proximity to bacterial cells may produce minerals that display distinct mineralogical or morphological features as a consequence of the microbial influence on the precipitation process. Characterizing such distinguishing features could potentially facilitate identification of early life in the geological record.
