How did oxygen first appear?

Whiffs in the air is how oxygen first appeared billions of years ago.

When was oxygen found?

2.33 billion years ago

Since its first appearance 2.33 billion years ago, oxygen accumulated in high enough concentrations to have a weathering effect on rocks just 10 million years later.
