Abstract
The studied section comprising the “Adoudounien” and the Lower Cambrian “Série schisto-calcaire” crops out on the northern slope of the Anti-Atlas near Tiout, 25 km South of Taroudannt. The Anti-Atlas provided, mainly by the work of Choubert (e.g. Choubert, 1963), many contributions to the stratigraphy of the Precambrian/Cambrian boundary.
