A rush for ‘green’ iron is on in Guinea. Will chimpanzees be a casualty?
Guinea is poised to become one of the world’s leading exporters of high-grade iron ore. Conservationists worry that could spell trouble for some of its chimpanzees.ashoka (Conservation news)

As we (humans) get to grips with how to scale up #hydrogen as an energy source (and for energy storage) and as part replacement for #fossilfuels, this new research (once again) shows that #microbes have beaten us to it and evolved their own solutions for energy - in this case using hydrogen power.
This new research in Nature Microbiology explores how hydrogen in seawater supports growth of multiple and diverse #bacterial species.
Fof those (like me) in #Melbourne , you may be interested that the research also includes study of this process within #PortPhillipBay sediments.

Molecular hydrogen in seawater supports growth of diverse marine bacteria - Nature Microbiology
Genome-resolved metagenomics, biogeochemistry, modelling and culture-based analysis reveal that marine bacteria consume H2 to support growth.Nature
