Some of the rocks date back more than 540 million years. The rocks along the Russian Platform date back to the Precambrian epoch, the earth's first aeon. This epoch spanned from the birth of the solar system 4.6 billion years ago through the emergence of the first multicellular creatures. To put it into perspective, the ancient rocks in the Black Sea existed for about 300 years before dinosaurs were on the scene.
