It is not uncommon that some species have repeated names such as Lutra Lutra, Bombus Bombus, Turdus Turdus, Lupus Lupus etc. When it is necessary to use a Latin name, follow the standard practice.t is not uncommon that some species have repeated names such as Lutra Lutra, Bombus Bombus, Turdus Turdus, Lupus Lupus etc. When it is necessary to use a Latin name, follow the standard practice.
A sample of gneiss from the site of the Earth's oldest dated rocks (the Acasta River area of Canada). This sample has been dated at 4.03 billion years old.
So far, rocks older than 3.0 billion years have been found in North America, India, Russia, Greenland, Australia, and Africa. The oldest rocks in North America, found in Minnesota, give a U-Pb discordia age of 3.56 billion years (Figure 5). The oldest rocks yet found on the Earth are in Greenland, South Africa, and India. The Greenland samples have been especially well studied.
