Abstract
The impact of long-term CO2-brine-rock interactions on the frictional properties of faults is one of the main concerns when ensuring safe geological CO2 storage. Mineralogical changes may alter the frictional strength and seismogenic potential of pre-existing faults bounding a storage complex. However, most of these reactions are too slow to be reproduced on laboratory timescales and can only be assessed using geochemical modeling. We combined...
