Garnets within geode-like serpentinite veins: Implications for element transport, hydrogen production and life-supporting environment formation
Geochemical micro-environments within serpentinizing systems can abiotically synthesize hydrocarbons and provide the ingredients required to support life. Observations of organic matter in microgeode-like hydrogarnets found in Mid-Atlantic Ridge serpentinites suggest these garnets possibly represent...
