Mineral Carbonation Potential and Transition Metal Migration in Kimberlite and Ultramafic Rocks: An Integrated Study of Acid Leaching, Enhanced Rock Weathering, and Microbial CO2 Sequestration
DownloadFall 2024
Carbonation of mafic and ultramafic rocks and mineral wastes provides a permanent way to sequester excess atmospheric CO2. Recent research has shown that this method also offers the potential for enhanced recovery of critical metals from mine tailings. This thesis presents a comprehensive study...
