Building a Framework to Understand Transition Metals' Behavior in Euxinic Conditions (Final Technical Report)

This project focuses first and foremost on metal sulfide geochemistry and mineralogy as controlled by a complex matrix of environmental factors. The principal investigator’s group aim to illuminate the metal-sulfide reaction mechanisms, rates, and pathways through systematic experimentation and data collection and analyzing the relationships between the characteristics of the produced metal sulfide solid-phase/aqueous complexes and the environmental factors. This understanding is essential for obtaining a full picture of the complex cycling patterns of single or multi metal species in sulfidic environments ranging from deep-see basins, hydrothermal vents, inland seas, terrestrial water bodies, to engineered remediation systems. The specific goal of this past project was to illuminate the reaction mechanisms and kinetics of metal anions and sulfide in mixed metal cation-metal anion-sulfide systems under various aqueous conditions (which resembled a range of naturally occurring euxinic settings). For the period of this contract, we investigated the molybdenum-iron-sulfide system, with an emphasis on the conditions that caused solid phase formation. We focused on quantifying the mobility/sequestration of molybdenum under each experimental condition and identified the changes of valence states for each involved element (i.e., Mo, Fe, and S) in the precipitate. We also proposed pathways for the electron transfer that occurred in aqueous chemistry. The major analytical tools used for this study include UV-visible light spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and synchrotron-based X-ray absorption spectroscopy (access gained through facility proposals to the Canadian Light Source). The biggest finding of this project was that besides pH, the iron-sulfur chemistry has a dominant control of the thiolation kinetics and subsequent reduction of Mo(VI), which are likely prerequisites of molybdenum sequestration in anoxic conditions. The results have been written up as manuscript by the end of this project (see Phillips et al.). The experimental results of this project may be critical for advancing our understanding of (1) basic chemistry involving transition metals and reduced sulfur species, (2) the validity of certain geochemical proxies, and (3) the stability and evolution of euxinic geochemical environments. It is noted that the basic results obtained through this project also have implications for Mo-S cluster-based catalyst development in inorganic chemistry and materials sciences.
