enigmatic little lumps of stuff that littered the seafloor might make their own oxygen in the dark of the deep.

But these little nodules are also rich in metals, and mining companies are vying to harvest them to make lithium ion batteries.

Scientists say we've got to figure out how these little nuggets impact the ecosystem of the sea, stat.

For Scientific American Science quickly, this is Rachel Feltman.

I'm here with Siam's own Alison Partial to hear more about this so-called dark oxygen.

Okay, so scientists have found something freaky at the bottom of the ocean.

Alison, tell me more. What's going on?

When are things at the bottom of the ocean not freaky? That's what I want to know.

In this case, it's not some very strange,

blobular fish or something with a lot of teeth.

It's actually something, by all accounts, non-living.

They basically found oxygen gas being produced in total darkness on the sea floor,

about 13,000 feet below the surface.

So we're talking about a very particular region of the Pacific Ocean called the Clarion

Clipperton Zone.

If you can imagine, it's like this long stretch of ocean between Mexico and Hawaii.
