Polymetallic Nodules, a Source of Rare Metals, May Hold the Secrets of 'Dark Oxygen'

One year after the discovery of #DarkOxygen, @sciam.bsky.social explores what happened thereafter.
Still mind-blowing. Still a reason to pause #DeepSeaMining.
We should know more before we destroy what we don’t understand. #KeepItInTheSeabed #ISA #StopDeepSeaMining
Millions of Mysterious Deep-Sea Nodules Offer Clues to Life—And Riches to be Mined
When researchers discovered evidence of “dark oxygen” last year, the news spread around the world, but the biggest challenge to the science comes from its funders

Very exciting! ✨ would love to hear all about it. Maybe we can chat about #darkoxygen in the coming weeks.

Polymetallic nodules can generate oxygen in total darkness, no sunlight needed. As WAM explores oxygen dynamics along the West African margin, findings like this show how much we still don’t know about deep-sea systems.

Evidence of dark oxygen production at the abyssal seafloor - Nature Geoscience
Oxygen is generated abiotically at the abyssal seafloor in the presence of polymetallic nodules, potentially by seawater electrolysis, according to in situ chamber and ex situ incubation experiments.

"Dark Oxygen" production at the seafloor webinar by Prof Sweetman 2025May06 (3:00-4:30PM EDT, UTC-4).

Will share details of the discovery & evidence for it (hopefully discussing co-production of hydrogen!)

I had a 2024 Zoom with Prof Sweetman of Scottish Association for Marine Science. He described the major discovery of "dark oxygen" production at the deep seafloor, & replicating the generation of #darkoxygen in lab apparatus.

We discussed his plans of including hydrogen #H2 analysis.

Part of our team (@jordonhemingway.bsky.social, C. Fernandes, T. Nagakura, Z. Wang) went sampling in the #Bedretto tunnel this week, looking for #darkoxygen !
Thank you @isme-microbes.bsky.social for funding my participation in this expedition!

The #DarkOxygen discovery is a reminder of how much we still don’t know about the #DeepSea.

Protecting and understanding deep-sea processes is critical before allowing destructive activities like #DeepSeaMining to proceed. #DefendTheDeep

Last year, @samsocean.bsky.social scientists made the groundbreaking discovery of #DarkOxygen production by polymetallic nodules, a target of #DeepSeaMining.

As #ISA30 negotiations unfold, findings like this highlight the urgent need to close scientific gaps in Earth’s least explored biome.

'Dark Oxygen' Discovery in Ocean Depths Draws Heavy Debate
Is it just shoddy science?

🌊 Chinese scientists have found deep-sea bacteria are producing #DarkOxygen - without any sunlight! Just another reminder that the #DeepSea is full of surprises, maybe we should study it before we destroy it? 🤯💙 #DeepSeaMysteries #StopDeepSeaMining #OceanScience
We may have discovered how dark oxygen is being made in the deep sea
A newly discovered mechanism could explain the shock finding last year that oxygen is produced by metallic nodules on the seafloor – and it might be happening on other planets, too

Today I learned about Dark Oxygen, with many thanks to the YouTube channel 7 days of science, t’was most enlightening, unlike where Dark Oxygen comes from! #youtube #7daysofscience #darkoxygen #science #themoreyouknow

We need to stop deep sea mining until we figure this out. Exactly how much of earth's oxygen is produced this way? #DarkOxygen

Read an interesting article and thought I'd doodle some notes. Dark oxygen - that's a cool name for a band.
