About Lithos
Lithos Carbon is an agricultural carbon removal company that permanently removes atmospheric CO₂ through enhanced rock weathering — spreading finely crushed basalt rock dust on farmland, where it reacts with rainwater to convert CO₂ into dissolved bicarbonate that is eventually stored in the ocean. The company uses proprietary machine learning and novel soil models to optimize basalt application for both carbon capture and crop yield improvement. It sells verified carbon removal credits to corporations and shares revenue with participating farmers.
