"Our study focuses on chemical sedimentary rocks found in the Saglek-Hebron. These rocks, among the oldest on Earth, dating back 3.9 billion years, are created through oceanic precipitation," said Jonathan O'Neil, associate professor in the Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences.

That’s a pretty smart rock to fool scientists.

Science is not “settled”.

“The study shows that the petrographic, geochemical, and spectroscopic features in the graphite (the crystalline form of carbon) found in the Saglek-Hebron chemical sedimentary rocks are in fact “abiotic,” that is, nonliving physical or chemical aspects of an environment or devoid of life.”

I remember the documentary about what happened last time they said that, it was called “The Devil in the Dark”

Did they find it in the Hudson?

Next they’ll say rocks are more alive than fetuses.

Review the overall dynamic geologic cycle, note the great amounts of time it takes for one fully complete cycle. The answer should be evident. Science is rife with individuals bent on making a name for themselves. The pushback is usually a symptom of self aggrandizement, aka pride.

To this day, scientists still do not understand how life evolved from non-life. (”Is Atheism Dead?”, Eric Metaxas ... worthy of your most serious consideration)

I don’t want to do the research but IMO since there became “science” 97% of scientists have been initially wrong 100% of time about everything.

Scientists have revealed that graphite in the ancient Saglek-Hebron iron formations of Nunatsiavut, once thought to indicate the earliest life on Earth, likely has abiotic origins.

Yet, unlike the initial report which was trumpeted by the media as evidence of first/prebiotic/spontaneous life formation, this paper will be ignored by the media.

That's how it always is.
