Greenhouse Gas And Gold Mines - Emissions Intensities ...

At underground mines, there was a significant decline in the grade of ore processed, from an average of 3.25 grams of gold per tonne in 2019 to 2.64 g/t in 2020. Emissions increased by a modest 2% at those mines, but with less gold produced per tonne of ore processed, emissions intensity on a per ounce basis increased far more.

Scientists Can Recycle CO2 Using Gold | Department of Energy

A glitzy new process, conceived and developed by NETL researchers and their collaborators, uses gold nanoparticles to efficiently convert CO2 into usable chemicals and fuels. It's a "carbon negative" breakthrough that consumes more CO2 than it puts out, and it could lead to an effective industrial-scale way to reduce CO2 emissions.
