1. A product comprising:

a carbonation aid and a carbonatable mineral containing one or more of un-carbonated Ca, Mg, Na, K, Fe, wherein the carbonation aid facilitates the conversion of one or more of CaO, MgO, Na₂O, K₂O or FeO to a carbonate or a CO₃containing mineral in the presence of CO₂;

wherein the carbonatable mineral has a volume-based mean particle size of less than or equal to 100 μm; and

wherein one or more of the carbonation aid or the carbonatable mineral has carbon dioxide bound thereto at a concentration greater than its atmospheric concentration.
