The University of British Columbia (Norman B Keevil Institute of Mining Engineering and the Department of Earth and Ocean Sciences) are actively working on CCS methodologies using mine waste materials as a substrate for sequestration. Drs Michael Hitch and Gregg Dipple are leading the research in the use of tailings and coarse mine rock as a substrate for mineral carbonation, the fossilised and most stable form of carbon.
