From: Fungal hyphae develop where titanomagnetite inclusions reach the surface of basalt grains
(a) Extended trench showing no evidence for grain alteration or the presence of titanomagnetite crystals at the grain surface. (b) The white arrow marks the location of a fungal hypha on the grain surface (hypha denoted by false-colored green) and (c) the location of a magnetite inclusion at depth. (d) The blue box provides an example of the grain surface with no near surface magnetite crystals or fungal-grain contacts. The magnetite inclusion highlighted in (c) occurred at ~ 10 µm into the grain as shown with magnified images contained in (e) yellow and (f) black boxes.
