Abstract Global warming caused by man-made CO2 emission has posed a great threat to the survival and the development of human beings. Carbon capture and storage (CCS) is regarded as a generally accepted technique for reducing CO2 emission worldwide. As one of geological carbon sinks, carbonation of mafic-ultramafic rocks is an economic, safe and permanent method to capture and store atmospheric CO2, which has attracted increasing attention from the international community in recent years. The authors have described the carbonation process of mafic-ultramafic rocks under natural conditions, and illustrated the carbon sequestration mechanism and the major factors affecting the rate of carbonation of mafic-ultramafic rocks. Besides, the international research progresses and typical application projects of carbon sequestration through mafic-ultramafic rocks were summarized, and the wide spread of carbonation of mafic-ultramafic rocks around the world was considered to be high potential of carbon sequestration. The promotion and application of this technique has great significance to the reduction of atmospheric CO2 in the near future.
