The sulfur is" critically important," says geochemist Douglas Rumble of the Carnegie Institution of Washington in Washington, D.C.It concentrates nickel into a form that can be mined commercially.

华盛顿哥伦比亚特区华盛顿卡内基研究所的地球化学家道格拉斯·朗布尔说，其中的硫是“非常重要的”。是硫将镍集中起来，形成硫化镍，从而使镍成为一种可以用商业规模进行开采的金属。

The discovery solves a mystery that has dogged researchers for decades, says geochemist Edward Ripley of Indiana University, Bloomington, who was not affiliated with the study.

印第安纳大学布卢明顿分校的地球化学家爱德华·里普利称，该发现解开了一个困惑研究人员几十年的谜团。里普利没有参与这项研究。

" This was an unexpected find," says isotope geochemist and co-author Christopher Ballentine of the University of Manchester in the United Kingdom.

“这是个意外的发现，”英国曼彻斯特大学同位素地球化学家、研究论文的合作者克里斯托弗·巴伦坦说。

Lead researcher Jim Moran, a geochemist at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, said:' The carbon you eat goes into your hair, so hair is a record of carbon ratios.

西北太平洋国家实验室的首席研究员，地球化学家吉姆莫兰说：你在食物中摄取的碳元素会储存在你的头发里，所以你的头发就记录了食物中的碳含量。

Geochemist Gabriel Bowen of Purdue University in West Lafayette , Indiana , applauds the work.

印第安纳州普渡大学西拉法叶分校的地球化学家加布里埃尔·鲍恩赞成这项研究.

Rumble, geochemist Andrey Bekker of the University of Manitoba in Winnipeg, Canada, and several other colleagues hit upon a clue to the sulfur's origins in ancient rocks from Western Australia.

有关硫的来源，朗布尔和加拿大曼尼托巴大学的地球化学家安德雷·贝克以及其他几个同事，从来自澳大利亚西部的古代岩石中偶然发现了线索。
