Calcite, one of Earth’s most common carbonate minerals, is key to both ancient formations and cutting-edge climate solutions.
We are planning to conduct a carefully planned, safe, small-scale experiment in Woodbridge, Tasmania in late 2024.

The ocean is already the largest store of carbon dioxide on the planet and has the potential to store even more. Learn about ocean alkalinity enhancement (OAE) and our research focus in this area.
Over 90 net zero professionals gathered at Hobart from 4-6 June, 2024 to discuss how we might realise atmospheric carbon removal in Australia.
We spoke to ABC Radio National’s Drive host Andy Park about our what we’re up to in CarbonLock, including work to better understand biomineralising microbes found in stromatolites.
From RESOURCEFUL magazine – Enhanced mineralisation – also known as mineral carbonation – is one of the promising methods for long-term reduction of atmospheric carbon dioxide. Australia is helping to lead the way as to where and how it can best be done.
DR ANDREW LENTON joined international colleagues at COP28 in Dubai to launch a new Work Plan for MI-CDR’s Enhanced Mineralization Technical Track.
We talked to DR ANDREW LENTON ahead of this year’s United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP28) about his work in the emerging field of carbon dioxide removal.
A climate overshoot that creates warmer oceans with lower oxygen levels will reduce the suitable habitat for many marine species long after CO₂ levels have peaked and declined.
Mineral carbonation offers the opportunity for both decarbonisation and atmospheric carbon dioxide removal, reports GRACE KIRKBY in resourceful magazine
The CarbonLock FSP has contributed to a new report on the role of carbon sequestration in accelerating Australia’s decarbonisation.
Catch up on the launch of the CarbonLock Future Science Platform, where we highlighted the opportunities in developing negative emissions technologies in Australia.
The State of the Climate 2022 report is now available.
