Mineral traps for greenhouse gases in mine tailings : a protocol for verifying and quantifying CO₂ sequestration in ultramafic mines

Mineralization of CO₂ in ultramafic mine tailings can occur on a scale that is significant relative to the greenhouse gas emissions of a mine. Consequently, some active mining operations may be able to take advantage of carbon mineralization within their tailings to offset part of their greenhouse g...
