Native AI and Si formation
@article{Korzhinsky1995NativeAA, title={Native AI and Si formation}, author={M. A. Korzhinsky and Sergey I. Tkachenko and Kirill I. Shmulovich and Genrikh S. Steinberg}, journal={Nature}, year={1995}, volume={375}, pages={544-544} }
SrRThe natural occurrence of elements such as aluminium and silicon in their native form is usually ascribed to either contamination or the presence of strongly reducing fluids 1 (for example, pure methane or hydrogen, although such fluids have never been found in nature). Here we describe the formation of crystals of native aluminium, silicon, titanium, iron and platinum inside the quartz tubes that we used to sample hot volcanic gas jets associated with Kudriavy volcano on lturup island in…
