Huronian glaciation
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from Huronian)
The Huronian glaciation extended from 2400 Ma to 2100 Ma, during the Siderian and Rhyacian periods of the Paleoproterozoic era, following the Oxygen Catastrophe. It was one of the most severe ice ages in geologic history and some geologists believe that it was very similar to the Snowball earth ice age that happened in the neoproterozoic era.
