BASIC Minerals
How it works
-
Silicates are applied to the soil
-
They chemically react with rainwater sequestering carbon dioxide by producing bicarbonate ions and/or soil carbonates
-
The bicarbonates enter the hydrology system and ultimately end up in the ocean
-
In the ocean, the bicarbonates (sequestered carbon) react to form carbonate minerals that settle on the ocean floor for millennia
