Framboidal pyrite evidence for persistent low oxygen levels in shallow-marine facies of the Nanpanjiang Basin during the Permian-Triassic transition
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors report persistent dysoxia throughout the latest Permian and euxinia just before the EPME, based on a new redox history reconstruction study using framboidal pyrite size distribution as well as sulfur isotopic compositions of pyrites, from the Taiping section on the Pingguo Platform in the Nanpanjiang Basin in China.

The prominent role of bacterial sulfate reduction in the formation of glendonite: a case study from Paleogene marine strata of western Washington State
Y. Qu,Y. Qu,Barbara M.A. Teichert,Daniel Birgel,James L. Goedert,Jörn Peckmann,Jörn Peckmann +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors analyzed glendonites from Cenozoic strata of western Washington State, USA, for their petrographic characteristics, stable isotope (C, O, S) patterns, and lipid biomarker inventories.

Anoxic development of sapropel S1 in the Nile Fan inferred from redox sensitive proxies, Fe speciation, Fe and Mo isotopes
Alan Matthews,Irit Azrieli-Tal,Ayelet Benkovitz,Miryam Bar-Matthews,Derek Vance,Simon W. Poulton,Nadya Teutsch,Ahuva Almogi-Labin,Corey Archer +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluate the redox evolution of Holocene sapropel S1 in VALPAMED cruise core MD9509, recovered at 880 mbsl in the NE Nile Fan, using a combination of geochemical element proxies, Fe speciation, Fe and Mo isotopes studies.

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.

The Sulfur Cycle
TL;DR: The authors' model of the sulfur cycle can draw some conclusions that man is now contributing about one half as much as nature to the total atmospheric burden of sulfur compounds, but by A.D. 2000 he will be contributing about as much, and in the Northern Hemisphere alone he is more than matching nature.

Pyrite: Its Rapid Formation in a Salt Marsh and Its Importance In Ecosystem Metabolism
TL;DR: Pyrite formation in salt-marsh peat occurs more rapidly than is generally thought for any natural system, and the rates of sulfate reduction and ecosystem respiration may be grossly underestimated.
Book
Rock and mineral analysis
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors provide an up-to-date treatment of the problems associated with the analysis of geological materials, including the requesite steps from selection of the sample and choice of elements to the facilities needed, preparation of sample, methods for the determination of individual constituens and reporting of the results of the analysis.
