Abstract: <p>Mineral feedstocks, including alkaline mine wastes, can sequester CO2 as a dissolved phase (e.g., HCO3-) or a solid carbonate via enhanced rock weathering (ERW). For this thesis, the release of easily accessible Ca and Mg from non-carbonate sources was determined for kimberlite residues from several diamond mines and commonly proposed ERW rock types, including wollastonite and olivine.… more Full Text: PREDICTING AND MONITORING DRAINAGE CHEMISTRY DURING MINERAL WEATHERING FOR CO2 SEQUESTRATION A thesis submitted to Committee of Graduate Studies in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Science in the Faculty of Arts and …
