On the potential for CO<sub>2</sub> mineral storage in continental flood basalts – PHREEQC batch- and 1D diffusion–reaction simulations

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Continental flood basalts (CFB) are considered as potential CO<sub>2</sub> storage sites because of their high reactivity and abundant divalent metal ions that can potentially trap carbon for geological timescales. Moreover, laterally extensive CFB ar...
