Soil sampling campaign started at the Castiglioncello magnesite mine!

We are excited to announce the start of our soil sampling campaign at the Castiglioncello magnesite mine, a crucial part of the STORECO2 project.

In the coming weeks, our team will collect soil samples from various locations around the mine to analyse mineral composition and geochemical properties. These samples will help us better understand the natural processes that led to magnesite formation and how the environment responds to this process. The Castiglioncello mine (Livorno, Italy) will serve as a key natural analogue for assessing potential environmental impact of large-scale carbon storage through mineral carbonation .

Stay tuned for updates on our findings!
