The Maotianshan shale is a lower Cambrian Konservat Lagerstätte named for Maotianshan Hill (simplified Chinese: 帽天山; traditional Chinese: 帽天山; pinyin: Màotiānshān) in Chengjiang County, Yunnan Province, China. More commonly, the extremely diverse assemblage of organisms are referred to as the Chengjiang biota for the multiple scattered fossil sites in Chengjiang, and more simply still, just Chengjiang. The Chengjiang fauna occur in outcrops of the Qiongzhusi Formation that date to between 525 and 520 million years ago, a period the lies about the middle of the early Cambrian epoch, at least some 10 million years earlier than the Burgess Shale. The Maotianshan shale is one of some forty Cambrian fossil locations worldwide exhibiting exquisite preservation of rarely preserved, non-mineralized soft tissue, comparable to the fossils of the Burgess Shale.
