Incised valleys. Reefs. Olistoliths. Treptichnids. Day 6 of the 2026 GSA Thompson Field Forum at Farm Swartkloofberg tackled the newly defined Swartkloofberg Formation—and the Cambrian boundary debate head-on.

Day 5 at Farm Swartpunt—one of the most significant Ediacaran fossil sites on Earth. Standing at an outcrop that helped define an entire chapter of life on Earth. That's a pretty remarkable place to spend a day in the field.

Field. Collections. Core. The final two days of the 2026 GSA Thompson Field Forum took the group to the Geological Survey of Namibia in Windhoek—Ediacaran fossil collections, a GRIND-ECT core workshop, and a fitting close to an incredible week.
