We thanks John Reeve, Curator, Clarke Earth Science Museum, University of Western Australia for access to the John Glover's original artefact collections. We thank Tony Cockbain and Jo Dortch for discussions and valuable comments on the Manuscript. We also acknowledge the support of the GeoHistory Laser Ablation Facility, John de Laeter Centre, Curtin University particularly Bradly MacDonald and Kelly Merigot for their assistance in the LA-ICPMS and TIMA analysis respectively. This research was also supported by an Australian Institute of Nuclear Science and Engineering grant (# ALNGRA15515) which provided XRD and MC-ICPMS analyses and assistance from Henri Wong (AINSE). R. Dean (Dickinson College, U.S.A.) helped with thin sectioning. Michelle Clinger (Dickinson College, U.S.A.) picked all the well cuttings. The following colleagues helped us identify the bryozoan species: Dennis Gordon (National Institute of Water & Atmospheric, New Zealand), Rolf Schmidt (Museum Victoria, Australia), Yvonne Bone (University of Adelaide, Australia), and Noel James (Queen's University, Canada).
