Summary

Anglo American’s Earthstone project uses a magnesium silicate by-product from ferronickel production in an enhanced rock weathering application. In magnesium depleted soils surrounding the ferronickel operations in Brazil, this provides not only controlled released magnesium but also a liming effect which is beneficial for crop health and can show significant yield increases for farmers.

Projects

Project EarthstoneThis project is a partnership between mining conglomerate Anglo American plc and ERW developer ZeroEx GmbH which uses material that would otherwise become waste to generate permanent, scalable CDR. Anglo American's Barro Alto facility in Goiás, Brazil, generates roughly 2 million tonnes per year of magnesium silicate, a waste of the nickel production process with very high weathering potential and proven agricultural co-benefits. Project Earthstone collaborates with farmers in the region to apply this material on thousands of hectares of agricultural land, taking advantage of Anglo American's value chain and ZeroEx's measurement expertise.
