Carbon mineralization using hyaloclastite, volcanic ash and pumice mineral and an alkaline solution, cement and concrete using same and method of making and using same

A method of mineralizing carbon dioxide comprising:

• combining a carbonation aid for facilitating the conversion of one or more of CaO, MgO, Na2O, K2O or FeO to a carbonate or a CO3 containing mineral in the presence of CO2 and with basaltic hyaloclastite or intermediate basaltic hyaloclastite;
• and
• exposing the carbonation aid and the basaltic hyaloclastite or intermediate basaltic hyaloclastite to carbon dioxide in gaseous, liquid or solid form, wherein the carbon dioxide gas is at a concentration greater than its atmospheric concentration.

12-15. (canceled)

A method of mineralizing carbon dioxide comprising:

• combining a carbon dioxide sorbent microporous material for facilitating the conversion of one or more of CaO, MgO, Na2O, K2O or FeO to a carbonate or a CO3 containing mineral in the presence of CO2 with basaltic hyaloclastite or intermediate hyaloclastite;
• and
• exposing the carbon dioxide sorbent microporous material and the basaltic hyaloclastite or intermediate basaltic hyaloclastite to carbon dioxide in gaseous, liquid or solid form, wherein the carbon dioxide gas is at a concentration greater than its atmospheric concentration.

The method of claim 22, wherein the basaltic hyaloclastite or intermediate basaltic hyaloclastite has a mean particle size less than or equal to approximately 40 μm.
