Abstract Geomicrobiology is the marriage of microbiology and geology. After reviewing the basics of bacteria-surface interactions, the chapter discusses biomineralization, which is the microbially mediated formation of solid minerals from soluble ions.

Saline Permafrost and Cryopegs as Potentially Important Sources of CO<sub>2</sub>-Assessing Organic Carbon Mineralization Potentials on the Alaskan Coastal Plain. [PDF]
Glob Chang BiolIncubation experiments reveal that potentially carbon‐rich saline permafrost and cryopegs from Arctic coastal plains exhibit CO2 production potentials comparable to active layers. This could substantially shift greenhouse gas balances, as salinity is currently not accounted for in permafrost carbon assessments.

Microbiology Australia, 2008 The ever increasing demand for oil, coupled with the reduction in reserves, is increasing emphasis on finding new oil deposits and recovering more oil from known reserves since half to two thirds of all of the oil discovered to date is still in the ground and not recoverable by present technology.

Source-Independent Enrichment of Light Lanthanides: Microbial Mobilization, Selective Uptake, and Intracellular Storage. [PDF]
Environ MicrobiolOnly light lanthanides facilitate lanthanide‐dependent methylotrophy. In Beijerinckiaceae bacterium RH AL1, light lanthanides are enriched from diverse sources, including poorly soluble minerals, through a multilayered process involving mobilisation, selective uptake, and intracellular periplasmic storage.
