In recent years, serpentinized ultramafic rocks have received considerable attention as a source of H2 for hydrogen-based microbial communities and as a potential environment for …
Elements that can occur in more than one valence state, such as Fe, C and S, play an important role in Earth's systems at all levels, and can drive planetary evolution as they cycle …
Aqueous dihydrogen (H2, aq) is produced in copious amounts when seawater interacts with peridotite and H2O oxidizes ferrous iron in olivine to ferric iron in secondary magnetite and …

Serpentinization of mantle peridotite generates molecular hydrogen that can be exploited by microorganisms to gain metabolic energy; however, the mechanisms that control hydrogen …
We summarize the uptake of carbon and sulfur during serpentinization of seafloor peridotites, and discuss the fate of these volatiles during subduction of serpentinite. We use …

Serpentinization of abyssal peridotites is known to produce extremely reducing conditions as a result of dihydrogen (H2, aq) release upon oxidation of ferrous iron in primary phases to …
We use the concentrations and isotope compositions of water, carbon, and sulfur in serpentinites and their dehydration products to trace the cycling of volatiles during …
