In reply to Jones Beene's message of Fri, 9 Jun 2017 06:53:06 -0700: Hi, Not that I disagree, but there are other more mundane possibilities for a Hydrogen excess, such as storage in e.g. carbon nano-tubes, or Bucky-balls, etc. that may form naturally under some conditions. Other substances that act as a Hydrogen storage medium may also play a role. (Clathrates for Hydrogen?)
