Geological Hydrogen Prospectivity of Iron Ore Deposits in India Based on Semiquantitative Analysis.

ABSTRACT: With increasing focus on clean energy, naturally occurring hydrogen in geological reservoirs represents a potentially attractive energy resource. Studies suggest that the quantity of recoverable subsurface hydrogen is potentially abundant and could have contributed substantially to the global energy supply for several decades. However, the exploration and exploitation processes and technologies for identifying and extracting these potential resources, remain poorly developed. This study presents a semiquantitative approach to provisionally identify the target areas suitable for hydrogen-resource exploration based on prospectivity mapping with available data for India. The proposed approach uses ARCGIS software to generate distance classifications based on positive Bouguer gravity anomalies
