Mineralization and Preservation of an extremotolerant Bacterium Isolated from an Early Mars Analog Environment

Mineralization and Preservation of an extremotolerant Bacterium Isolated from an Early Mars Analog Environment

Abstract The artificial mineralization of a polyresistant bacterial strain isolated from an acidic, oligotrophic lake was carried out to better understand microbial (i) early mineralization and (ii) potential for further fossilisation. Mineralization was conducted in mineral matrixes commonly found...
