Figure 9. Carbon price in Canada and USA and potential CO2 mineralization benefits including carbon credits and nickel credits. The capital cost of ex-situ direct aqueous CO2 mineralization is based on Huijgen et al.[107] and O’Connor et al.[58] and recalculated with a 3%-5% inflation rate. The potential nickel credit is based on a nickel content of 0.27% in olivine, nickel recovery by utilizing mineral carbonation and the current nickel price on the market of $11/lb.
