No not at all.

Serpentinization is a geological process where water reacts with iron-bearing minerals in ultramafic rocks (like olivine) to form serpentinite, releasing molecular hydrogen gas.

It’s a thermal chemical reaction of ground water and Fe rich minerals the Fe+ has more draw than the O+ ion so it oxidized the Fe setting free the H2 atoms while keeping the O+

This is Petrology 1301 level stuff we teach it to undergrads.
