Ecological Processes Underpinning Microbial Variability in Archean Granitoids Beneath the Deccan Traps: Evidence From Deep Drilling in Koyna, India. [PDF]

open access: yesEnviron Microbiol Rep
Deep biosphere hosted by Archean granitoid basement of Deccan Traps showed depth‐wise microbial partitioning. Limited dispersion and variable selection control community assembly. Fewer abundant bacterial taxa were ubiquitous, while large numbers of rare taxa remained localized.

Early Archean alteration minerals in mafic-ultramafic rocks of the Barberton greenstone belt as petrological analogs for clay mineralogy on Mars

open access: yes, 2021
Characterization of terrestrial analog sites is critical for detection and determination of clay miner-alogy in remote sensing studies of Mars aimed at geological, hydrological, and potentially biological investigations.

The Abundance and Behavior of Viruses in Ancient Seawater and Modern Iron-rich Environments [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The proclivity of silica for ferric hydroxide sorption sites allows for an Archean iron cycle involving iron-silica co-precipitation and deposition of banded iron formations (BIF).

Simultaneous fractionation of sulfur dioxide explains mass independent fractionation of sulfur isotopes in Archean sedimentary pyrites

open access: yes, 2021
The relationship between ∆36S and ∆33S in Archean sedimentary pyrites has been used to evaluate early geologic processes, including photochemical reactions in the anoxic atmosphere, biological activity and thermochemical alteration during sediment ...

Building Archean cratonic roots [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2022
Geophysical, geochemical, and geological investigations have attributed the stable behaviour of Earth's continents to the presence of their Archean cratonic roots. These roots are likely composed of melt-depleted, low density residual peridotite with high Magnesium number (Mg#), while devolatilisation from the upper mantle during magmatic events might ...

The Effects of High-Grade Metamorphism on Cr-Spinel from the Archean Sittampundi Complex, South India

open access: yes, 2021
We investigated the crystal and structural behavior of Cr‐bearing spinels from the Ar‐ chean chromitites of Sittampundi (India), which had been subjected to very high‐grade metamor‐ phism.

Modeling the signature of sulfur mass-independent fractionation produced in the Archean atmosphere

open access: yes, 2014
Minor sulfur isotope anomalies indicate the absence of O2 from the Archean atmosphere. A rich dataset showing large variations in magnitude and sign of Δ33S and Δ36S, preserved in both sulfates and sulfides, suggests that further constraints on Archean ...

Spatial Variations in Methane Content and Their Main Controlling Factors of the Deep‐Buried Coalbed in the Nalinhe–Hengshan Area, Ordos Basin

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
Ash yield is the primary geological factor controlling the spatial variations in the total gas content of the deep‐buried coalbed methane in the Nalinhe‐Hengshan area, Ordos Basin. However, porosity dominates the differential enrichment of the free gas content of the deep‐buried coalbed methane in the Nalinhe‐Hengshan area, Ordos Basin.
