Ediacara Hills

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ediacara Hills is a hill range in the northern Flinders Ranges of South Australia, around 650 km north of Adelaide. There are many old mines in the area from copper and silver mining activity in the late 19th century.

As the site of a lagerstätte, the Hills have given their name to the Ediacaran geological period and to a group of extremely ancient life forms, the Ediacaran biota.
