Mafic and ultramafic rocks have become a promising approach for atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) reduction, as they are major sources of CO2-reactive minerals, i.e., olivine, pyroxene, plagioclase, and serpentine. The minerals potentially sequester CO2 by turning it into a stable solid phase through carbon mineralization in the rock weathering process. However, detailed descriptions and evaluat…
Carbonate rocks are known for their high heterogeneity and textural and compositional complexity. Evaluating their petrophysical properties is thus challenging, especially with limited information. One way to obtain an internal image of such rocks is to scan them with X-ray computed tomography scanners, revealing their internal structures. The problem with this approach is the trade-off between…
