Indian geologists discovered fossilized microbial life in Jharkhand's Singhbhum Craton, dating back 3.5 billion years. Led by Trisrota Chaudhuri, the team directly dated the material, linking the rock's age to the life evidence. The study, published in PNAS, suggests early life used sophisticated carbon dioxide conversion.
