Geologic Activities - Phase II (2005-2009)
The primary geologic activity in Phase II is a small-scale pilot test in southeastern Washington.
The purpose of this test is to inject 1,000 tons of CO2 into mafic rocks to determine the capacity, injectivity, and mineralization rates in deep basalt formations. Please click here for project updates and to read more about this project.
In addition to the Basalt Pilot test, there are several other geologic activities involved in BSCSP's Phase II work. To learn more about any of these projects, please click on the following links:
