1 00:00:00,790 --> 00:00:07,320 [Music] 2 00:00:11,670 --> 00:00:09,380 [Applause] 3 00:00:15,330 --> 00:00:11,680 thank you for the introduction and I'm 4 00:00:18,240 --> 00:00:15,340 very sorry for this such a table boys so 5 00:00:21,570 --> 00:00:18,250 I hope you can understand my babe you 6 00:00:23,820 --> 00:00:21,580 have not my not my talk itself okay I'm 7 00:00:27,180 --> 00:00:23,830 Cosima Gucci from top in the city in 8 00:00:29,279 --> 00:00:27,190 Japan and I'm talking about the result 9 00:00:34,670 --> 00:00:29,289 of the geochemical analysis of the 10 00:00:38,549 --> 00:00:34,680 samples from Ghana okay why do we are we 11 00:00:39,240 --> 00:00:38,559 interested in 2.2 GA a period of 2.2 12 00:00:42,420 --> 00:00:39,250 billion years ago 13 00:00:45,660 --> 00:00:42,430 well this figure is from anions at all 14 00:00:47,880 --> 00:00:45,670 2014 which has been frequently used in 15 00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:47,890 this kind of talk and then until point 16 00:00:53,400 --> 00:00:51,010 to g8 here Saudi to point to GA is just 17 00:00:56,639 --> 00:00:53,410 before the just after the right after 18 00:00:57,209 --> 00:00:56,649 the infant lies of oxygen in the 19 00:01:00,840 --> 00:00:57,219 atmosphere 20 00:01:04,740 --> 00:01:00,850 goe great oxidation event at around 2.4 21 00:01:07,290 --> 00:01:04,750 to 2.2 GA and by the time atmosphere 22 00:01:11,370 --> 00:01:07,300 could have been oxygenated ensure ocean 23 00:01:14,310 --> 00:01:11,380 - but how about the deep ocean so so far 24 00:01:16,469 --> 00:01:14,320 a few studies of non sterile environment 25 00:01:19,560 --> 00:01:16,479 which is deep deep employment at the 26 00:01:22,020 --> 00:01:19,570 point GA has been done so please 27 00:01:24,510 --> 00:01:22,030 remember that a monthly super group in 28 00:01:26,880 --> 00:01:24,520 Austria and the transport super group in 29 00:01:30,149 --> 00:01:26,890 South Africa and also Huron Ian super 30 00:01:35,370 --> 00:01:30,159 group in Canada or all of these Imperial 31 00:01:41,899 --> 00:01:35,380 important jurist record have mainly 32 00:01:45,450 --> 00:01:41,909 shower rocks in the upper portion okay 33 00:01:47,070 --> 00:01:45,460 so here is the step wise in model of the 34 00:01:50,130 --> 00:01:47,080 step by rock sedation of the Artemis the 35 00:01:55,679 --> 00:01:50,140 ocean system this is originally from a 36 00:01:58,170 --> 00:01:55,689 casting to 1993 and then 1997 so the 37 00:02:00,780 --> 00:01:58,180 front step stage 1 to stage 4 the time 38 00:02:02,999 --> 00:02:00,790 is from left to right we have no oxygen 39 00:02:07,289 --> 00:02:03,009 in the atmosphere no in this erosion one 40 00:02:11,940 --> 00:02:07,299 no in no no action in the deep ocean but 41 00:02:15,270 --> 00:02:11,950 with time we at most oxygen is invading 42 00:02:18,390 --> 00:02:15,280 indeed port so we have may we may we may 43 00:02:21,770 --> 00:02:18,400 have had a goe for the transition from 44 00:02:26,350 --> 00:02:21,780 stage 2 to stage stage 3 okay 45 00:02:28,790 --> 00:02:26,360 the timing insisted controversial but my 46 00:02:31,460 --> 00:02:28,800 interest is here how long did it take 47 00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:31,470 for the deep ocean to be fully ocean 48 00:02:38,180 --> 00:02:35,970 aided quite soon or we have a time lag 49 00:02:44,090 --> 00:02:38,190 but this is just the motivation of both 50 00:02:46,190 --> 00:02:44,100 of my lab study ok so I looked for the I 51 00:02:48,950 --> 00:02:46,200 dropped a tear geologic map and to look 52 00:02:51,410 --> 00:02:48,960 for deep samples throughout the world 53 00:02:53,540 --> 00:02:51,420 and then I found that theater is a 54 00:02:57,560 --> 00:02:53,550 greenstone belt in Ghana 55 00:02:59,660 --> 00:02:57,570 if whose age is about 2.2 GA and then 56 00:03:02,930 --> 00:02:59,670 about 10 years ago I first went to Ghana 57 00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:02,940 to do a preliminary work then I decided 58 00:03:09,920 --> 00:03:06,690 that I realized that this is a very good 59 00:03:12,890 --> 00:03:09,930 place perfect place to do drink to 60 00:03:17,620 --> 00:03:12,900 obtain a deep faces samples from 2.2 G 61 00:03:22,220 --> 00:03:17,630 period and then luckily enough I could 62 00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:22,230 obtain funding to do to realize the 63 00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:23,010 continent 64 00:03:29,270 --> 00:03:26,370 drink in Ghana and that was that 65 00:03:34,729 --> 00:03:29,280 happened in fall 2015 66 00:03:38,540 --> 00:03:34,739 in the in this area sauce fish sauce 67 00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:38,550 with Ghana and then we obtained 160 68 00:03:42,430 --> 00:03:41,130 meter wrong 2.2 GA deep faces 69 00:03:45,290 --> 00:03:42,440 sedimentary rocks 70 00:03:50,500 --> 00:03:45,300 these are least altered and then we got 71 00:03:52,940 --> 00:03:50,510 a 100% recovery so this is based on 72 00:03:56,300 --> 00:03:52,950 alternation of shales and volcanic 73 00:04:00,530 --> 00:03:56,310 stones and sand stones some kosa grains 74 00:04:03,530 --> 00:04:00,540 and for this study samples are from the 75 00:04:06,110 --> 00:04:03,540 uppermost 20 meter unit so if we assume 76 00:04:08,900 --> 00:04:06,120 the we denote segmentation rate but we 77 00:04:11,539 --> 00:04:08,910 assume 5 millimeter per thousand year 78 00:04:15,470 --> 00:04:11,549 then this 20 meter section represent a 79 00:04:17,900 --> 00:04:15,480 for me only 4 million year period ok ok 80 00:04:21,590 --> 00:04:17,910 this is a volcanic sandstone cosa grains 81 00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:21,600 and greenish volcanic suta stones and 82 00:04:25,159 --> 00:04:22,530 then black shales 83 00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:25,169 but this presentation is only for this 84 00:04:32,870 --> 00:04:29,010 the up the uppermost section and here's 85 00:04:34,810 --> 00:04:32,880 the photo of the actual core and which 86 00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:34,820 will be 87 00:04:41,629 --> 00:04:38,970 expanded in next ride so here is the 88 00:04:44,840 --> 00:04:41,639 just representative photo of the doing 89 00:04:47,570 --> 00:04:44,850 activity in Ghana there were lots of 90 00:04:51,590 --> 00:04:47,580 there were lots of lots of dust coming 91 00:04:55,999 --> 00:04:51,600 from sovereign desert and also mist from 92 00:04:59,689 --> 00:04:56,009 the nearby ocean and then kids during 93 00:05:02,719 --> 00:04:59,699 activity was always observed by tens of 94 00:05:04,249 --> 00:05:02,729 kids attentions of curious kids okay so 95 00:05:10,189 --> 00:05:04,259 anyway I could obtain this kind of 96 00:05:11,870 --> 00:05:10,199 really beautiful durable samples okay so 97 00:05:14,180 --> 00:05:11,880 first I would like to show you the 98 00:05:16,969 --> 00:05:14,190 result of the ion speciation analysis 99 00:05:19,159 --> 00:05:16,979 here are the profiles of a young 100 00:05:21,350 --> 00:05:19,169 speciation from left to right onion pie 101 00:05:24,350 --> 00:05:21,360 right pirate bond onion and iron 102 00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:24,360 carbonate onion magnetite magnetite bond 103 00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:27,570 iron and iron oxide and then total iron 104 00:05:35,390 --> 00:05:31,770 Fe T was Sigma T what Ryan and on this 105 00:05:37,939 --> 00:05:35,400 in this dips profile LED dashed line 106 00:05:42,290 --> 00:05:37,949 represents the average the iron content 107 00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:42,300 elaborate shell over pas by from Tara & 108 00:05:51,469 --> 00:05:47,490 McLennan 1985 textbook then I like to I 109 00:05:55,930 --> 00:05:51,479 would like you to look at if Dan's right 110 00:05:59,560 --> 00:05:55,940 I am pirate pirate aliens 111 00:06:03,439 --> 00:05:59,570 we divided the samples into three units 112 00:06:06,290 --> 00:06:03,449 pirate pour over samples here and pilot 113 00:06:08,930 --> 00:06:06,300 for a Poisson process here in open 114 00:06:19,310 --> 00:06:08,940 symbols and then pirate rich samples 115 00:06:21,860 --> 00:06:19,320 with fuel chuckles okay then then I drag 116 00:06:26,029 --> 00:06:21,870 to show you the this kind of a a 117 00:06:29,300 --> 00:06:26,039 speciation plot the y axis is a onion 118 00:06:33,920 --> 00:06:29,310 pirate onion / a highly active onion and 119 00:06:37,960 --> 00:06:33,930 the holy x-axis oesn't axis this is ion 120 00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:37,970 highly reactive to iron Toto Toto Ryan 121 00:06:45,830 --> 00:06:43,050 so obviously many of the samples with 122 00:06:48,980 --> 00:06:45,840 no pirate pirate pro samples are plotted 123 00:06:51,830 --> 00:06:48,990 in this object domain here and then 124 00:06:54,650 --> 00:06:51,840 pirate each samples profit in this new 125 00:06:57,230 --> 00:06:54,660 clinic region this feature is also 126 00:07:00,770 --> 00:06:57,240 evident in this sulfur carbon prot 127 00:07:03,980 --> 00:07:00,780 sulphur pirate bond sulfur and Owen 128 00:07:05,990 --> 00:07:03,990 carbon content open symbols pirate press 129 00:07:09,020 --> 00:07:06,000 improves up rotate on the trend of 130 00:07:10,879 --> 00:07:09,030 normal marine this is a representative 131 00:07:15,620 --> 00:07:10,889 slope for the phanerozoic a typical 132 00:07:18,290 --> 00:07:15,630 known surf Enoch black shales normal 133 00:07:22,310 --> 00:07:18,300 shells I should say and then reads 134 00:07:25,730 --> 00:07:22,320 pirate beach samples also Proteus in 135 00:07:28,400 --> 00:07:25,740 this region suggesting nukes any 136 00:07:32,360 --> 00:07:28,410 conditions or seen genetic pirate 137 00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:32,370 formations in the water crime okay so 138 00:07:39,950 --> 00:07:36,570 the environment was essentially oxic but 139 00:07:43,370 --> 00:07:39,960 with sporadic development of anoxic or 140 00:07:46,270 --> 00:07:43,380 York City conditions with time then I 141 00:07:49,249 --> 00:07:46,280 would like to show you the new element 142 00:07:52,399 --> 00:07:49,259 concentrations for samples the 143 00:07:55,370 --> 00:07:52,409 concentrations are normalized by a pas 144 00:08:00,260 --> 00:07:55,380 post alkane australian average sale okay 145 00:08:03,589 --> 00:08:00,270 again Brock Ryan's present pirate which 146 00:08:07,520 --> 00:08:03,599 samples upper samples and Gen Z's blue 147 00:08:13,240 --> 00:08:07,530 and orange rinds pilot Pro samples okay 148 00:08:18,020 --> 00:08:13,250 and we we seems to have some positive 149 00:08:19,550 --> 00:08:18,030 same anomaly right they exist but no 150 00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:19,560 European man normally right this is 151 00:08:24,649 --> 00:08:23,490 based normalized to a pas right so 152 00:08:27,140 --> 00:08:24,659 basaltic 153 00:08:29,779 --> 00:08:27,150 segmental rocks should have slightly 154 00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:29,789 higher elevated European concentration 155 00:08:35,449 --> 00:08:32,010 on this kind of rot so this is not the 156 00:08:38,409 --> 00:08:35,459 European anomaly right so pyrite Pro 157 00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:38,419 samples have more rustic basalt rock 158 00:08:43,370 --> 00:08:41,370 signature right flat pattern with some 159 00:08:46,060 --> 00:08:43,380 depleted in right where sediment 160 00:08:50,329 --> 00:08:46,070 concentrations right and then while 161 00:08:54,829 --> 00:08:50,339 pyrite reached samples here so modern 162 00:08:55,960 --> 00:08:54,839 seawater reich lightest element is 163 00:08:58,450 --> 00:08:55,970 smaller than heavier 164 00:09:03,720 --> 00:08:58,460 rare earth elements a signature with 165 00:09:06,190 --> 00:09:03,730 more educated total health content okay 166 00:09:08,260 --> 00:09:06,200 so actually this is quite consistent 167 00:09:11,050 --> 00:09:08,270 with the Yuke's knee conditions for 168 00:09:13,210 --> 00:09:11,060 pilot formation impaired examples this 169 00:09:15,130 --> 00:09:13,220 kind of rare earth element pattern is 170 00:09:17,530 --> 00:09:15,140 quite common for the anoxic water 171 00:09:20,460 --> 00:09:17,540 crammed in modern-day environment this 172 00:09:24,130 --> 00:09:20,470 is due to a reductive dissolution of 173 00:09:27,690 --> 00:09:24,140 release of a serum from sediment to the 174 00:09:30,130 --> 00:09:27,700 opening water crown okay 175 00:09:34,030 --> 00:09:30,140 the new experimental cinema normally 176 00:09:36,490 --> 00:09:34,040 then I operated this ratio City mobile 177 00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:36,500 serum stove values so this is just you 178 00:09:40,240 --> 00:09:38,810 know sodium concentration divided by c/d 179 00:09:42,370 --> 00:09:40,250 monster bad news is it's a hypothetical 180 00:09:42,880 --> 00:09:42,380 value between lance demand Presidium 181 00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:42,890 here 182 00:09:47,830 --> 00:09:45,650 right then in the robot sections we have 183 00:09:52,290 --> 00:09:47,840 limited very limited range for the same 184 00:09:55,600 --> 00:09:52,300 same stuff are used but for pirate poor 185 00:09:57,880 --> 00:09:55,610 upper part we have slight increase in 186 00:10:00,250 --> 00:09:57,890 the range and Beaufort the pirate each 187 00:10:04,470 --> 00:10:00,260 samples only due to date and points or 188 00:10:09,190 --> 00:10:07,030 spectacular but we have a increase in 189 00:10:14,440 --> 00:10:09,200 range of this area mobile City monster 190 00:10:16,780 --> 00:10:14,450 like ratios okay again parentage samples 191 00:10:19,270 --> 00:10:16,790 have wider range of same over cm star 192 00:10:20,950 --> 00:10:19,280 ratios and this may represent the 193 00:10:23,280 --> 00:10:20,960 changes in the dock state with time 194 00:10:25,510 --> 00:10:23,290 right sporadic 195 00:10:29,050 --> 00:10:25,520 development of York's in equinoxes water 196 00:10:31,500 --> 00:10:29,060 cram and to form pyrite and two more to 197 00:10:37,020 --> 00:10:31,510 have more increased concentration of a 198 00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:37,030 cerium interval in the water from okay 199 00:10:42,910 --> 00:10:40,850 then I would like you to look at the 200 00:10:46,210 --> 00:10:42,920 trace metal concentrations for these 201 00:10:50,590 --> 00:10:46,220 samples okay and then 202 00:10:52,780 --> 00:10:50,600 x-axis for these four plots or terrible 203 00:10:56,520 --> 00:10:52,790 amoxil it should be it weight percent 204 00:11:00,400 --> 00:10:56,530 and versus four kinds of transition 205 00:11:06,210 --> 00:11:00,410 narrows chromium molybdenum nickel and 206 00:11:09,230 --> 00:11:06,220 copper and only parity samples here 207 00:11:11,810 --> 00:11:09,240 filled circle have right 208 00:11:14,660 --> 00:11:11,820 positive correlations with aluminum 209 00:11:18,170 --> 00:11:14,670 oxide content our T value is 0.6 five 210 00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:18,180 seven zero two zero and five and fifty 211 00:11:25,910 --> 00:11:21,810 five this is quite small so this may 212 00:11:28,579 --> 00:11:25,920 suggest that we may have had increased 213 00:11:31,100 --> 00:11:28,589 content of measuring first I thought 214 00:11:32,750 --> 00:11:31,110 that these metals could have been 215 00:11:37,460 --> 00:11:32,760 provided to the sedimentary environment 216 00:11:39,740 --> 00:11:37,470 by hydro solar input but this net metals 217 00:11:46,130 --> 00:11:39,750 have more weaker correlation with iron 218 00:11:50,060 --> 00:11:46,140 content so I then thought that these are 219 00:11:54,050 --> 00:11:50,070 due to enhanced continental measuring or 220 00:11:59,329 --> 00:11:54,060 changing simply mythology more Coco sir 221 00:12:01,490 --> 00:11:59,339 grains okay then I would like to I'd 222 00:12:05,090 --> 00:12:01,500 like you to look at a lower peridot 223 00:12:07,040 --> 00:12:05,100 samples here okay so para trĂ¡s samples 224 00:12:09,410 --> 00:12:07,050 in the roba sections have V correlation 225 00:12:11,540 --> 00:12:09,420 between organic carbon content and iron 226 00:12:12,850 --> 00:12:11,550 comrade content that is shown in the 227 00:12:18,230 --> 00:12:12,860 next slide 228 00:12:22,210 --> 00:12:18,240 okay well so pilot resorts in the rural 229 00:12:25,220 --> 00:12:22,220 sections have this kind of correlations 230 00:12:27,050 --> 00:12:25,230 suggesting that Pharaoh Sonia informed 231 00:12:30,260 --> 00:12:27,060 by a biological physical reduction 232 00:12:32,750 --> 00:12:30,270 combined with but bicarbonate ion to 233 00:12:34,579 --> 00:12:32,760 form iron carbonate eventually and 234 00:12:36,650 --> 00:12:34,589 Pyrrha didn't form effectively because 235 00:12:40,190 --> 00:12:36,660 the biogenic sulfide was not available 236 00:12:42,710 --> 00:12:40,200 in this toxic environment so iron 237 00:12:50,120 --> 00:12:42,720 two-plus combined with bicarbonate not 238 00:12:52,250 --> 00:12:50,130 with sulfide okay then this kind of this 239 00:12:54,199 --> 00:12:52,260 is just a don type of us right so I 240 00:12:57,110 --> 00:12:54,209 measure the converse of composition but 241 00:13:00,650 --> 00:12:57,120 Owen carbon and they are mostly around 242 00:13:03,650 --> 00:13:00,660 -25 formula which is not so special okay 243 00:13:07,580 --> 00:13:03,660 so this is just 244 00:13:11,570 --> 00:13:07,590 showing the origin of when carbon in the 245 00:13:15,220 --> 00:13:11,580 samples which may be photosynthetic 246 00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:15,230 activity in the upper oceans so 247 00:13:23,000 --> 00:13:19,410 conclusions geochemical and I stopped 248 00:13:27,410 --> 00:13:23,010 analysis of 2.2 Gao samples in Ghana 249 00:13:32,210 --> 00:13:27,420 suggests of the drawings essentially oxy 250 00:13:34,400 --> 00:13:32,220 deep ocean and coma carbon is provided 251 00:13:36,380 --> 00:13:34,410 to deep ocean from the soft ocean and 252 00:13:38,930 --> 00:13:36,390 then iron reduction could have occurred 253 00:13:43,010 --> 00:13:38,940 and then spot the development of anoxic 254 00:13:45,800 --> 00:13:43,020 luke scenic water crown right leading to 255 00:13:47,480 --> 00:13:45,810 us in genetic malformations so this is a 256 00:13:49,910 --> 00:13:47,490 major conclusion it didn't take long for 257 00:13:52,820 --> 00:13:49,920 the deep ocean to the commode sick right 258 00:13:56,000 --> 00:13:52,830 after the infra goe at around 2.4 to 2.2 259 00:13:57,710 --> 00:13:56,010 GA and this study has implications for 260 00:14:01,630 --> 00:13:57,720 the redox evolution of the atmosphere 261 00:14:04,640 --> 00:14:01,640 ocean system in the early Earth and 262 00:14:07,970 --> 00:14:04,650 future work would be to measure surface 263 00:14:10,010 --> 00:14:07,980 of competitions and Ayana stops but for 264 00:14:12,590 --> 00:14:10,020 multiple Nam and chromium isotopes I 265 00:14:14,810 --> 00:14:12,600 would like to have your help need 266 00:14:16,250 --> 00:14:14,820 collaborations the samples the samples 267 00:14:26,330 --> 00:14:16,260 can be shared upon request 268 00:14:27,560 --> 00:14:26,340 ok so thank you for your attention maybe 269 00:14:31,970 --> 00:14:27,570 one quick question while we're 270 00:14:42,890 --> 00:14:31,980 transferring speakers in please the last 271 00:14:44,530 --> 00:14:42,900 speaker come to the front okay thank you
