Summary

Sources of Natural Hydrogen a) Sepentization a Redox reaction, where under the right conditions (pressure, temperature, pH) certain iron rich rock species (like olivine) are reduced in the presence of water to form Hydrogen gas. b) Radiolysis processes can release hydrogen from water with the products of radioactive decay, literally ripping apart the water molecules. d) Faults may play a critical role in allowing Hydrogen to migrate from deep, HTHP kitchens where in which kerogen has been overcooked; and/or in allowing ground water to reach reactive source rocks. d) Igneous intrusions and volcanic activity may liberate Hydrogen.
