Abstract
Examines the abiogenic formation of alkanes in the crust of the Earth as source of global hydrocarbon reservoirs in Canada. Formation of abiogenic hydrocarbons by reduction of carbon dioxide; Significance of abiogenic hydrocarbons in hydrocarbon reservoir; Use of hydrogen isotope on the analysis of abiogenic methane in crystalline rocks.
