Metagenomic Evidence for H(2) Oxidation and H(2) Production by Serpentinite-Hosted Subsurface Microbial Communities

Ultramafic rocks in the Earth’s mantle represent a tremendous reservoir of carbon and reducing power. Upon tectonic uplift and exposure to fluid flow, serpentinization of these materials generates copious energy, sustains abiogenic synthesis of organic molecules, and releases hydrogen gas (H(2)). In...
