Mineral carbonation reactions under water-saturated, hydrothermal-like conditions and numerical simulations of CO2 sequestration in tholeiitic basalt of the Eastern Deccan Volcanic Province, India

Basaltic glass experiments and modelling of primary minerals with CO2 and water revealed appearance of calcite, aragonite, siderite, smectite, chlorite, and chabazite. These results largely correspond to reaction modelling, explained by reaction progress, enthalpy and entropy.327
