The discovery of MTBs has had a major impact on geology and paleomagnetism . When magnetite-producing MTBs die and lyse, magnetosome crystals are released into the surrounding environment, where they may persist or undergo dissolution (e.g. through iron (III) reduction) and/or transformation into other minerals (e.g. iron sulfide)
