- This paper is the first to report that iron atoms in clay minerals can exchange with iron atoms in the surrounding fluid, which has been subsequently confirmed by others (https://doi.org/10.1021/acs.est.6b02019). Our discovery calls into question the perception of structurally stable clay minerals and has led to further work in the wider research community documenting the impact of this discovered process for contaminant fate (https://doi.org/10.1021/acs.est.7b01793) and iron biogeochemical cycling (https://doi.org/10.1021/acs.est.6b02019).
