The Cutting Edge Symposium (CES): Locking Carbon in Minerals will spark discussion on the fundamental research required and foster collaboration with our industry, university, and government partners, which are critical overcoming global challenges towards reaching net-zero.

Mineral carbonation is a naturally occurring geological process that contributes to reducing emissions by permanently mineralising carbon. Diverse geology and extensive coastlines position Australia to be a leader in withdrawing atmospheric carbon through mineral carbonation, but acceleration of this natural process to achieve efficient, high-volume capture remains a scientific- and engineering-challenge.
