Abstract
This hypothesis for the origins of life includes recent research results in areas such as Liquid-Liquid Phase Separation by Brangwynne and many others, mechanochemistry in biological systems, and the polymerization of nucleotide monophosphates on mica by Hassenkam, Damer, Mednick, and Deamer [2020]. According to this origins hypothesis, mica in micaceous clay provided an ideal environment for emerging life (1-4). Life also imitates mica in many ways. One similarity between life and mica is the presence of high concentrations of potassium ions, K+.
