2024/10/05

This text is a scientific paper exploring the importance of observation in geological research, arguing that accurate observation is crucial for scientific understanding. The authors present a detailed methodology for making observations, emphasizing the need for careful measurements, statistical analysis, and systematization of data. They suggest that a geologist should formulate a hypothesis before beginning the observation process and then use their observations to verify or refute that hy...

You can watch the video here- https://youtu.be/7ooWmnNIIrMThe Klondike Schist in Yukon is renowned for its gold-bearing quartz veins, which have historically been the source of extensive placer gold deposits. Recent research has highlighted a significant form of gold mineralization in the region, with disseminated gold occurring without the presence of quartz veins. This form of mineralization is often found near orogenic veins and is associated with chlorite alteration and weak

2024/10/05

Recent seismic activity in Washington’s Cascade Range, especially near Mount Adams, has caught the attention of geologists. In September 2023, an unexpected surge of earthquakes occurred, with six being recorded compared to the usual one or two every few months. This phenomenon, possibly driven by both tectonic movements and glacial interactions, raises questions about the future risks of volcanic eruptions and other natural hazards in the region.This heightened seismicity underscores the need for

The article explores how the potential for World War III might impact the markets, particularly focusing on gold and Bitcoin. As geopolitical tensions rise, experts debate whether traditional safe-haven assets like gold will retain their value, or if newer digital assets, such as Bitcoin, will play a more significant role in protecting wealth. Historically, gold has been viewed as a hedge against uncertainty and conflict due to its physical and stable nature, while Bitcoin's appeal comes from

2024/10/04

The article explores the potential of geologic hydrogen as the next major energy source, highlighting the growing interest from billionaire investors and startups such as Koloma and Breakthrough Energy. This type of hydrogen is touted as "gold hydrogen" or "white hydrogen" due to its natural origin, making it more environmentally friendly than traditional hydrogen production methods. While some experts remain skeptical about the abundance of geologic hydrogen, its potential as a

Gold Market Shifts: Are We Facing a False Move in 2024?

Geo-News Radio ·

2024/10/03

The precious metals market, especially gold, is expected to experience a significant "false move" in 2024. Analysts point to a double-directional change, suggesting that while gold prices may start to decline, silver could outperform it. This shift is linked to the turning of the Stochastic indicator, which implies that gold's trend is temporarily weakening. Such moves are often part of a broader market correction, which is necessary before a long-term trend takes hold.Historically,

The Wasamac deposit, situated along the Francoeur-Wasa Shear Zone (FWSZ) in the Abitibi Greenstone Belt, Canada, exhibits characteristics of both intrusion-related and orogenic gold deposits. The deposit showcases two distinct alkaline alteration assemblages: potassic and albitic, each linked to unique gold characteristics. The potassic alteration, abundant in the deposit's core, is characterized by microcline, carbonates, quartz, and gold associated with porous pyrite enriched in

The distribution of gold in igneous rocks is a crucial aspect of economic geology, shedding light on the formation of gold deposits. Igneous rocks, formed from cooling magma, can contain varying concentrations of gold depending on factors such as magma composition and subsequent geological processes.Studies have shown that gold can be found in various igneous environments, from porphyry systems to epithermal deposits. The presence of gold is often associated with other minerals such as quartz,

Mount Gandeng in China's Guizhou province has become a geological curiosity due to its peculiar ability to "produce" egg-shaped stones. Located near Gongshan village, this mountain regularly expels oval rocks ranging from the size of a chicken egg to that of a basketball, particularly after heavy rains. The phenomenon has not only attracted scientific interest but has also become a source of income for local villagers who collect and sell these unique stones.The origin of these
