Multiple sulfur isotope signatures of sulfite and thiosulfate reduction by the model dissimilatory sulfate-reducer, Desulfovibrio alaskensis str. G20
William D. Leavitt,William D. Leavitt,Renata C. Cummins,Marian L. Schmidt,Marian L. Schmidt,Min Sub Sim,Min Sub Sim,Shuhei Ono,Alexander S. Bradley,David T. Johnston +9 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors provide a test of proposed metabolic models of sulfate reduction by growing an axenic culture of the well-studied MSRs, Desulfovibrio alaskensis strain G20, under electron donor limited conditions on the terminal electron acceptors sulfate, sulfite or thiosulfate, and tracking the multiple S isotopic consequences of each condition set.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sulfate Aerosol Hazes and SO2 Gas as Constraints on Rocky Exoplanets’ Surface Liquid Water
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the fundamentals of the sulfur cycle on a rocky planet with an ocean and an atmosphere in which the dominant forms of sulfur are SO2 gas and H2SO4-H2O aerosols (as on Earth and Venus).
Journal ArticleDOI
Did mantle plume magmatism help trigger the Great Oxidation Event
TL;DR: In this article, it has been shown that the Matachewan Large Igneous Province (LIP) is both exactly coincident with the onset of the GOE, and of sufficient magnitude to be the source of this sulphate release.
Journal ArticleDOI
The multiple sulfur isotope architecture of the Golden Mile and Mount Charlotte deposits, Western Australia
TL;DR: In this paper, the δ34S, Δ33S, and Δ36S analyses on pyrite grains from the different mineralization styles, including oxidized and reduced sulfide-oxide assemblages, reveal a large variation in Δ34S (from − 12.6 to + 23.5

Pyrite in a sulfate-poor Paleoarchean basin was derived predominantly from elemental sulfur : Evidence from 3.2 Ga sediments in the Barberton Greenstone Belt, Kaapvaal Craton
Aleksandra Galic,Paul R.D. Mason,José M Mogollón,Mariette Wolthers,Pieter Z. Vroon,Martin J. Whitehouse +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, a one-dimensional reactive transport model was proposed to investigate the sources of Fe and S in pyrite formed in a Paleoarchean sedimentary basin.

Geochemistry of Hydrothermal Ore Deposits
TL;DR: In this paper, Skinner et al. discuss the relationship between hydrous alteration and its relationship to hydrous fluid composition in the formation of sulfide-sulfide ores.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sedimentary pyrite formation: An update
TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that organic matter appears to be the major control on pyrite formation in normal (non-euxinic) terrigenous marine sediments where dissolved sulfate and iron minerals are abundant.
Journal ArticleDOI
The age curves of sulfur and oxygen isotopes in marine sulfate and their mutual interpretation
TL;DR: In this article, a model involving symmetrical fluxes is introduced to take advantage of the oxygen data, and the measured δ34S and δ18O correspond to variations in these isotopes in sulfate of the world ocean surface.
