Destabilization of deep oxidized mantle drove the Great Oxidation Event

The rise of Earth’s atmospheric O(2) levels at ~2.4 Ga was driven by a shift between increasing sources and declining sinks of oxygen. Here, we compile recent evidence that the mantle shows a significant increase in oxidation state leading to the Great Oxidation Event (GOE), linked to sluggish upwar...
