WebDec 1, 2015 · Banded iron formations (BIFs) have been at the center of many debates in geology, especially regarding the early (i.e., Archean and Paleoproterozoic) Earth and its surface environments. BIFs are chemical sedimentary rocks that have an anomalously high iron content (>15 wt% Fe) and typically contain layers of chert ( Klein, 2005 ).

Webbanded-iron formation (BIF), chemically precipitated sediment, typically thin bedded or laminated, consisting of 15 percent or more iron of sedimentary origin and layers of chert, chalcedony, jasper, or quartz. Such formations occur on all the continents and usually are older than 1.7 billion years. They also are highly metamorphosed.
