00:32 into the subsurface where we have rocks like this.
00:37 And these rocks contain metals, calcium, magnesium, iron.
00:44 And when this CO2 gas fluid, the sparkling water, touches the rock, it releases these metals.
00:52 And then they combine with the CO2 and form these carbonate minerals
00:58 that you can see here as these white dots.
