Fe2+ disproportionation within iron-rich alkaline vent analogues reveals proto-bioenergetic systems
Abstract Alkaline hydrothermal vents are plausible environments for the emergence of life on Earth. By means of a simplified analogical reconstruction of the vent-ocean interface of these systems reproducing early Earth conditions, we show that iron (oxy-hydr)oxide minerals may have carried out prot...
