Definitions

n.名词 noun
  1. 1
    • : a mineral, iron-nickel phosphide,3P, found only in meteorites.

Examples

  • Phosphorus in the mineral schreibersite is highly reduced, which means it’s not tightly bound to oxygen in the mineral.

  • It’s not completely clear there was enough rock exposed to the air—where it could be hit by lightning and lead to schreibersite production—to make phosphorus available.

  • From there it was just a matter of calculating how much schreibersite could have been produced by lightning billions of years ago, around the time the first life emerged on Earth.

  • The planet needed a lot of phosphorus-containing schreibersite to sustain life.

  • One potential source of phosphorus on the early Earth is the unusual mineral schreibersite, which is found in small amounts in meteorites.
