Greenhouse gases effect, particularly carbon dioxide (CO<sub>2</sub>), has significantly resulted in an increase in climate change and global warming because of the uncontrolled combustion of hydrocarbon fuels. Carbon capture and storage (CCS) technology has been presented as an effective technique to mitigate CO<sub>2</sub> emissions by capturing and injecting back into subsurface geological formations for permanent storage. Geological formations consist of a diverse range of minerals such as olivine, pyroxene, amphibole, biotite and clays, among others, each with unique properties that influence their CO<sub>2</sub> adsorption capacity. This paper explores the carbon adsorption capacity of formation minerals, emphasizing clays, which plays a critical role in CCS. Minerals are categorized based on their crystal structure, chemical composition and physical characteristic originating from diverse geological environments, including magmatic, sedimentary, hydrothermal, and metamorphic systems. Understanding the physiochemical chemistry of these minerals is essential for evaluating their adsorption potential. This review highlights the significance of mineralogical diversity in influencing adsorption capacity and explains adsorption isotherms and kinetic models to aid in predicting adsorption behaviour. Aligned with Goal 13: Climate Action from the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, this review advances sustainable development technologies to mitigate CO emission. By expanding the understanding of mineral-based CO<sub>2</sub> adsorption mechanisms, this review supports the advancement of CCS technologies that are pivotal in the global effort to tackle climate change and reduce atmospheric CO<sub>2</sub> concentrations. The findings underscore the potential of geological formations as viable long-term storage solutions, thereby promoting environmental sustainability and aiding in the conversion towards a low-carbon future.
