An unusual feature of the Burgess Shale is that it is one of the earliest fossil beds to contain impressions of the soft parts of animals.───吉斯叶岩不同寻常的特质在于，它是保存有生物软体结构的最古老化石。

In an area of the Atlas Mountains of Morocco the researchers have found another diverse (and sometimes bizarre) assemblage of soft-bodied organisms from a period not long after the Burgess Shale.───在摩洛哥的阿特拉斯山脉，研究人员发现了另一处保存有丰富的动物软体组织的的化石群，它的形成年代紧跟布尔·吉斯化石群之后。

The slabs of Burgess Shale that Walcott excavated contained the earliest known examples at the time of many major animal groups in the fossil record, in rocks that were about 505 million years old.───沃尔科特在伯吉斯页岩中发现的古生物化石，囊括了五亿五百万年前地球上生活的多个主要物种，这是人类第一次发现这么古老的化石。

A popular introduction to the Burgess Shale can be found in Steven J.───一种常见的介绍布尔吉斯页岩中可以找到史蒂芬学者

Palaeontologists had long thought that many of the Burgess Shale animals are examples of experiments in evolution.───古生物学家曾一度以为布尔吉斯生物群是实验性进化的牺牲品。

To some, the huge variety of life in the Burgess shale has been an inspiration.

Burgess Shale type preservation involves non mineralized tissues preserved as organic are replicated by hydrous aluminosilicates.
