Sequestration of selenium on calcite surfaces revealed by nanoscale imaging

Calcite, a widespread natural mineral at the Earth’s surface, is well-known for its capacity to sequester various elements within its structure. Among these elements, selenium is important because of its high toxicity in natural systems and for human health. In the form of selenite (Se(IV)), seleniu...
