A number of articles are mentioning the presence of nitrogen and phosphorus. I listened to the entire press conference, but I didn't hear anything about either of these two elements. Sulfates and sulfides and carbonates, but nothing about nitrogen or phosphorus. Did I miss something? And if these were found, what were the concentrations, and what compounds do they think they're coming out of?
