The laminar structures are made by the biochemical activity of cyanobacteria (bacterias living from photosynthesis). It is thanks to these antics living beings that earth started having O2 in it's atmosphere. These bacterias appeared 3,5 billions years ago, which make them one of the oldest found living being on earth !
