Pueblo is an ideal location for carbon capture and storage because of the area's industrial activity and subterranean rock formations, Manika Prasad, a professor of geophysics at Colorado School of Mines, told the Chieftain.

However, lithium has been found in other hard rock mines in the region, said Steve Enders, the mining engineering department head at the Colorado School of Mines.

Of all places in Colorado, those unexpected marvels are a few favorites of Matt Morgan, the state geologist with Colorado Geological Survey. Take it as a tip: Don’t let your gaze get stuck on the high peaks and deep canyons to the west, however ....

The hub will be located in the Pueblo area, where massive carbon emissions from two power plants and cement kiln, among other major carbon producers, may need to be stuffed underground to meet state and U.S. climate change targets.

Morgan Bazilian, Simon Lomax and Greg Clough of the Payne Institute for Public Policy authored this opinion piece on what others can learn from Colorado's rules for regulating methane and other oil and gas emissions.

Ian Lange, director of the mineral and energy economics program at the Colorado School of Mines, said nothing in U.S. federal policy is geared toward smoothing market fluctuations or encouraging long-term offtake agreements between miners and ....

Global interest in mass timber construction -- which involves thick, compressed layers of wood, bonded together, creating structural load-bearing elements -- has skyrocketed in the last several years, after the International Building Code announced ....

“The building performed exactly like we expected,” said Shiling Pei, a Mines engineer and the project’s co-director. “The building should go back to plumb. We designed everything to be elastic like a spring or a rubber band. You can stretch it, but ....

“It’s sort of astonishing to me that they didn’t use the practices that the launch industry has perfected for decades,” said George Sowers, a professor of mechanical engineering at the Colorado School of Mines who previously worked for Martin ....
