...Given that the accumulation of sulfide and subsequent pyrite formation requires iron limitation (Berner, 1984; Poulton and Canfield, 2011), Bekker et al. (2010) suggested that sulfide-facies IF should no longer be considered a variety of IF, sensu stricto....

...This low-oxygen redox state in the deep oceans formed a prelude to Snowball glaciations, the rise of atmospheric and oceanic oxygen, and the emergence of complex life; the only return of massive IFs was in association with the Sturtian glaciation (e.g., Klein and Beukes, 1993; Hoffman et al., 1998)....

...…invoked a continental source of iron, where Fe (II) would have been mobile during weathering in the absence of atmospheric O2 (e.g., James, 1954; Lepp and Goldich, 1964), as well as the expectation that early continents would have been more mafic than today, and hence richer in iron (Condie, 1993)....
