Assessing siliceous sinter matrices for long-term preservation of lipid biomarkers in opaline sinter deposits analogous to Mars in El Tatio (Chile)

The study investigates lipid preservation in three silica sinter deposits from El Tatio (Chilean Andes). For this purpose, less time-resistant biomolecules, such as DNA, were investigated as to detect traces of recent microbial biomass.
