Deep-Ocean Minerals Generate Oxygen at 13,000 Feet Below Surface
Los Angeles CA (SPX) Jul 23, 2024
An international team of researchers, including a chemist from Northwestern University, has discovered that metallic minerals on the deep-ocean floor can produce oxygen at depths of 13,000 feet. This finding challenges the traditional belief that only photosynthetic organisms, such as plants and algae, generate Earth's oxygen. The discovery suggests oxygen can also be produced at the seafl
