Abiotic methane formation during experimental serpentinization of olivine
Open accessAbstract
Significance: Abiotic methane discharged from serpentinizing rocks supplies metabolic energy to chemosynthetic microbial communities and may have done so since the earliest lifeforms evolved on Earth. Several recent reports have claimed observation of abiotic formation of methane during low-temperature serpentinization of olivine-rich rocks during laboratory experiments. However, using 13 C-labeled carbon sources, this study shows that the methane observed in such experiments is predominantly derived from background sources rather than abiotic synthesis. Conversely, more rapid production of methane is observed when an H 2 -rich vapor phase is present within the reaction vessel. Overall, the results indicate that in situ abiotic synthesis may contribute less methane to near-surface serpentinites than some recent studies have suggested.

“For example, when pressure is low enough for gas-phase reactions, abiotic CH4 production is high (53), but it is unlikely that gas-phase reactions would occur at great depth in the crust (44).”

“High experimental methane production has been reported (51, 52), but similar experiments with 13C-labeled carbon have shown that the methane produced is derived from background organic carbon contamination (53, 54).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
