1. 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 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.
