Key Points
Specific microorganisms use metal-containing minerals as electron sinks for heterotrophy-based respiration and electron and/or energy sources for autotrophic growth.
The microbial cell envelope is an electrical and physical barrier that can be overcome by pathways that consist of redox proteins (for example,
