Summary[edit]

Description
English: CO2 dissolved in salt water is weakly acidic and can react with the minerals in the surrounding rocks, forming new minerals as a coating on the rock (much like shellfish use calcium and carbon from seawater to form their shells). This process can be rapid or very slow depending on the chemistry of the rocks and water and it effectively binds the CO2 to the rocks.
