South African crustal fracture fluids preserve paleometeoric water signatures for up to tens of millions of years

Fracture fluids in Earth's crust may remain isolated for millions to billions of years, and contain information on paleohydrogeology, subsurface microbial life, and conservative components that help elucidate the atmospheric evolution of the early Earth. Examples include fluids in the South Afr...
