ABOUT THE COMPANY
Leading the way for carbon mineralization and sequestration.
CO2 Lock specializes in harnessing brucite for carbon mineralization and permanent storage.
CO2 Lock is built on nearly a decade of research conducted by Natural Resources Canada and the University of British Columbia.
With exclusive access to an exclusive database of brucite-rich deposits worldwide, we have a distinct competitive edge in identifying and harnessing this natural resource for large-scale carbon capture.
