Formation of H<sub>2 </sub>and CH<sub>4 </sub>by weathering of olivine at temperatures between 30 and 70°C
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Hydrocarbons such as CH<sub>4 </sub>are known to be formed through the Fischer-Tropsch or Sabatier type reactions in hydrothermal systems usually at temperatures above 100°C. Weathering of olivine is sometimes suggested to account for abiotic formatio...
