Hyperbarometric Hyperthermophily/Thermophily, Transition Metals, Organosulfur, and Carboxylate Surface-bonders
 * Iron-Sulfur World - Thio-organic Chemistry occurring on the Iron Sulfide/Pyrite surface of a Hydrothermal Vent System generating sulfur-analogs of the primary metabolites from inorganic monomers CS, CO, CS2, COS, CO2, H2S, H2O, HCN
 * Iron Sulfide conversion to Pyrite serves as a kinetically inhibited source of energetic electrons for the reduction of inorganic carbon to organic carbon (Geoenergetic)
 * H2S/(Fe,Ni,Co) Sulphides ⇒ Iron-Sulfur Clusters Fe-S.PNG
 * H-R-COS- + CO2 + FeS + 2 H2S ⇒ R=CSH-COS- + FeS2 + 2 H2O
 * Anionic Surface-anchored Thiocarboxylates anchored on a positively charged iron sulfide/pyrite surface - (Carboxypeds)
 * Polycarboxylic Acids possess enhanced surface-bonding and retention by the iron sulfide/pyrite surface
 * Pyrite-pulled Autocatalytic Proto-Reductive Citric Acid Cycle (RCC) ⇒ Chemoautotrophic Surface Metabolist (RCC Metabolic Core)
 * Thiols /(Thio)Aldehydes /(Thio)Ketones ↔ Thioenols /(Thio)Carboxylates / Alpha-Keto-Acids ↔ Alpha-Thioenol-Acids
 * Fatty Acids Arachidonic acid1.svg
 * Surface-anchored Thio-analogs of Proto-coenzyme moieties
 * 2-mercaptoethanesulfonate ⇒ Coenzyme M Coenzyme M (CoM).svg
