... often been on the primary roles of decay and early diagenesis, the impacts of deeper burial and metamorphism on fossil preservation are less well understood. We document a sequence of late-stage mineral replacements in panarthropod fossils from the Sirius Passet Lagerstätte (North Greenland...

...David A. T. Harper; Emma U. Hammarlund; Timothy P. Topper; Arne T. Nielsen; Jan A. Rasmussen; Tae-Yoon S. Park; M. Paul Smith Abstract The lower Cambrian Lagerstätte of Sirius Passet, Peary Land, North Greenland, is one of the oldest of the Phanerozoic exceptionally preserved biotas...

...Timothy P. Topper; Francesco Greco; Axel Hofmann; Andrew Beeby; David A.T. Harper Abstract The Sirius Passet Lagerstätte (northern Greenland) is an exceptionally well-preserved early Cambrian faunal community containing a diverse array of stem-group euarthropods, lobopodians, worms, sponges...

... transition. Large nonbiomineralized arthropod carapaces overprinted with trails, interconnected burrow systems, narrow-caliber structures with dendritic terminations, and annulated burrows are abundant in the Early Cambrian Sirius Passet Lagerstätte (Greenland). Taphonomic controls were partially responsible...

...Jon R. Ineson; John S. Peel Abstract The Early Cambrian Sirius Passet Lagerstätte of North Greenland occurs in marine mudstones (Buen Formation) deposited in a slope environment along the eroded scarp of a pre-existing carbonate platform. The shallow-water platform is represented by dolostones...

...JOHN S. PEEL Abstract A large (maximum length 80 mm), tubular, corset-like problematic fossil from the early Cambrian (Cambrian Series 2, Stage 3) Sirius Passet Lagerstätte of North Greenland is interpreted as the lorica of an ancestral loriciferan. In addition to the double circlet of 7 plates...

...ALLISON C. DALEY; JOHN S. PEEL Abstract The Sirius Passet biota of North Greenland is one of the oldest Cambrian lagerstätten, and although it is dominated by non-mineralized arthropods and lobopods, anomalocaridids have never been identified. Based on a single specimen, we herein describe...

... into pleural spines abaxially. Axially, each tergite overlaps the following tergite posteriorly by 1/6 to 1/5 the tergal length (sag.). The non-mineralized arthropod described herein is derived from the Sirius Passet fossil conservation deposit of North Greenland (82°47.6′N, 42°13.7′W), the oldest...

...Ben J. Slater; Sebastian Willman; Graham E. Budd; John S. Peel Abstract The early Cambrian (ca. 518 Ma) Sirius Passet Lagerstätte of North Greenland is one of the most celebrated sites bearing fossils of soft-bodied organisms, and provides key insights into the Cambrian explosion of animal life...
