Iron oxide compounds have naturally formed during the whole of Earth's history. Synthetic
compositions with iron oxides are produced with the use of various techniques and widely …

Methane is a potent greenhouse gas, which likely enabled the evolution of life by keeping
the early Earth warm. Here, we demonstrate routes towards abiotic methane and ethane …

Abstract Precambrian Banded iron formations (BIFs) provide important insights on the
chemical composition of ancient seawater, as well as the tectonic setting of their formation …

Shared coordination geometries between metal ions within reactive minerals and enzymatic
metal cofactors hints at mechanistic and possibly evolutionary homology between particular …

In this study, we present major and trace element concentrations, U-Pb zircon
geochronology as well as neodymium isotopic compositions of the banded iron formations …

Abstract Aqueous S IV species (HSO 3− HSO_3^-, SO 3 2− SO_3^2-) derived from
volcanogenic atmospheric SO2 are important to planetary habitability through their roles in …

Abstract Bulk geochemistry, Sr, Nd, and O–H isotope systematics are reported for the first
time on banded iron formation (BIF)-hosted high-grade iron ore at the north-western …

It is well-known that multi-stage metamorphism can result in the alteration of indigenous
biological molecules, limiting our understanding of early life on Earth. However, the …

Large-scale subsurface hydrogen storage is critical for transitioning towards renewable,
economically viable, and emission-free energy technologies. Although preliminary studies …

In this study, we investigated Ni2+, Zn2+, and Co2+ mineralogical incorporation and its
effect on green rust transformation to magnetite. Mineral transformation experiments were …
