The Precambrian is the informal name for the large expanse of time preceding the current Phanerozoic Eon. It began with the Earth's formation about 4.5 billion years ago and lasted until the advent of multicellular life about 542 million years ago. Overall the planetary environment was drastically different. Life appeared sometime late in the Precambrian, but it is not known when.
The Precambrian "supereon" is divided into three eons: the Hadean, Archaean, and Proterozoic.
Very little is known about the Precambrian, despite the fact that it comprises nearly 90% of the Earth's history. This is simply because Precambrian rocks are so old, and are either heavily metamorphosed, have been destroyed by erosion, or remain buried deep beneath Phanerozoic strata.
Precambrian is a geologic period that extends as back as 4.500 million years ago. Fossils are very rare from that period of time.
very little, there are stromatolites, domed mates of microscopic algae that are aged as precambrian. No other fossils in the precambrian
no. 50,000 years is the upper limit for using it for dating.

The Precambrian period was from 4600 million years ago to about 542 million years ago.
The Precambrian Era began in the time period 4600 and ended in 570.
it began from the formation of the earth. earth started as a ball of fire
It was the Precambrian time period.
It began around the Precambrian period.
The Precambrian era begins with the formation of Earth around 4.6 billion years ago. It is the longest geological time period, spanning from the formation of Earth to the beginning of the Paleozoic era about 541 million years ago.
