Hidden hydrogen

The Malian discovery was vivid evidence for what a small group of
scientists, studying hints from seeps, mines, and abandoned wells, had
been saying for years: Contrary to conventional wisdom, large stores
of natural hydrogen may exist all over the world, like oil and gas-but
not in the same places. These researchers say water-rock reactions
deep within the Earth continuously generate hydrogen, which percolates
up through the crust and sometimes accumulates in underground traps.
There might be enough natural hydrogen to meet burgeoning global
demand for thousands of years, according to a U.S. Geological Survey
(USGS) model that was presented in October 2022 at a meeting of the
Geological Society of America.
