In case you are interested in a) more studies of Outokumpu, I challenge @riikkakie.bsky.social to tell about her papers, b) doing research in Outokumpu Deep Scientific Drill Hole, it is part of International Continental Drilling Program's infrastructure and open for science, be in contact with me!

There's a whole bunch of papers that have come out describing the #deepbiosphere in crystalline bedrock fluids in Outokumpu, for example bg.copernicus.org/articles/13/...

The Outokumpu Deep Drill Hole draws attention now because of a new publication about volatile organic compounds found from different depths of the bedrock fluids, see Kietäväinen et al. www.nature.com/articles/s43...

A range of non-methane volatile organic compounds was identified in more than 500 m depth in groundwater-filled Precambrian bedrock fracture zones, along with indicators of microbial metabolism, using...
