Did minerals surfaces and meteorite components act as prebiotic catalysts for chemical evolution increasing molecular complexity toward the origin of life?

It has already been known that both meteorite fragments and terrestrial minerals displayed iron catalyze inorganic and organic reactions leading to production of metalorganic entities (M4 material) which are able to perform catalytic activities typical of the contemporary life forms. While these properties indicate that these might be examples of prebiotic catalysts, complexity of their structures, chemical composition, the production of pigments with the light absorbing properties similar to carotenoids opening up possibilities that they might represent a kind of nonconventional form of pre-terrestrial life.
