The Flinders Ranges geological successions represent an extraordinary window into the major stage in Earth’s history described as the “dawn of animal life”. The sites in this serial property present a geological record of Earth’s wildly fluctuating climate conditions and environments over a period of 350 million years that evidences the special habitable conditions on Earth that gave rise to animal life. This succession captures this dynamic record that includes life from microbial stromatolites to early primitive multicellular life, to the advent of animals as exemplified by the remarkable Ediacara Biota. The evolution of skeletons, limbs, eyes, predation and vertical burrowing during the Cambrian radiation was the origin of many modern animal life forms on Earth today. The serial property is proposed to be nominated against criterion (viii).
The Flinders Ranges, part of the traditional lands of the Adnyamathanha People, is a semi-arid mountainous landscape located 500 kilometres north of Adelaide, the capital city of South Australia. It is known for its outstanding aesthetic beauty, diverse landscapes and rich biodiversity, and exceptional scientific values. The South Australian Government works in partnership with the First Peoples of South Australia and supports their Nations to take a leading role in caring for their Country. The South Australian Government is working to engage with the Adnyamathanha Traditional Owners to build a partnership and obtain consent for a serial World Heritage nomination of seven geographic areas (component parts) of the Flinders Ranges. The Ikara-Flinders Ranges National Park and Vulkathunha-Gammon Ranges National Park co-management boards are supportive of World Heritage recognition. Local communities, landowners, expert geologists and the Australian Government are providing support for the preparation of the nomination of seven geographic areas (component parts) of the Flinders Ranges.
