… from buried sulphides to power their metabolism.

It turns out the filaments made by Candidatus Electrothrix gigas are based on MOFs “strikingly similar to those used by chemists”. This was not a case of deliberate biomimicry; these MOFs were created in labs before they were discovered in nature.

LMFAO HE DEVELOPED MOFS
"Yeah Arabs could never do any science except some of the most groundbreaking material science/chemistry of the current day"
RFK is of course correct, it has been *checks notes* an entire year since an Arab has won a Nobel Prize
