Gas Field of the Lithosphere and Possibilities of the Use of Adsorbed Gases in Rocks in Prospecting for Mineral Resources

Methods for the extraction of adsorbed and absorbed gases from rocks (sediments) can be used in prospecting for mineral deposits, because these gases are gradually accumulated and preserved in rocks. The thermodesorption flow is supplemented with fluids from the earth's mantle. The fluids migrating to the surface produces the lithospheric gas field. The background gas field formed in this way might be influenced by physical fields and fluids from different mineral deposits. Physical fields of ore deposits may change the composition of the background gas field.
