Although some peridotite formations lie off the coast of California, options for using the technology to help directly control CO 2 emissions in the U.S. are limited. No matter, says Kelemen.

Samail Ophiolite (Oman) This formation produces hydrogen through low-temperature water/rock reactions, with dissolved H₂ concentrations as high as 2.9 millimolar in peridotite wells.

Matter and his colleague Peter Kelemen are currently researching peridotite formations in Oman, which they say could be used to mineralize as much as 4 billion tons of CO 2 a year, or about 12% of ...

On December 5, 2023, Oman-based 44.01 announced what it called the world’s first mineralization project that uses seawater to inject CO2 into peridotite rock formations.

Through the pilot project, CO 2 will be captured from the air, dissolved in seawater and then injected into peridotite formations deep underground, where it will mineralise, ensuring that it ...

The initial pilot of 44.01’s Earthshot prize-winning mineralisation technology commenced in 2023 and permanently mineralised 10 tonnes of carbon dioxide (CO2) within Fujairah’s peridotite rock ...

Oxythermobarometry measurements 4, 5 indicate that the oxygen fugacity () recorded by spinel-bearing peridotite rocks, which originate at a depth of 30–50 km in the mantle, ranges from ...

Pilot project aims to mineralise the greenhouse gas within peridotite formations found in the emirate of Fujairah Solid concept: Adnoc partners with Oman based technology firm 44.01 are planning ...
