Large Igneous Province Emplacement Triggered an Oxygenation Event at ∼1.4 Ga: Evidence From Mercury and Paleo‐Productivity Proxies

Abstract The mid‐Proterozoic (∼1.8–0.8 Ga) ocean‐atmosphere system is hypothesized to have experienced fluctuations in redox conditions with transient oxygenation events. One of these happened at ∼1.4 Ga, and it is speculated that this event may link to the emplacement of large igneous province (LIP...
