Thank you for another fascinating video. I spread salt on winter roads with a salt truck. Our yard alone, 30 trucks, may go through 1000 tonnes in a major storm event. Ontario, Canada.

Another great video, professor. I relate to this video on so many levels. Firstly, I live near the NOOR solar complex in Morocco, it was nice to lean more about how salt is used in CSP. And secondly, I went to visit a salt mine recently and I experienced what you experienced underground! Thanks for the amazing informative content!

You explain very scientifically and accurately, and I salute you for your scientific content. In my mine, a streak of silica, calcium carbonate, and gold can be seen in the form of stockwork on the ground surface. And usually the gold grade is above 100ppm. Please give an explanation about the formation and origin of this organization

About concentration solar generation.... Sorry, but it does not make much sense to me when a simple photovoltaic panel converts 20% of the power of the sun directly into electricity. No circuits, no towers, no high temperatures, no risks... Concentration solar is never going to be a good idea...

CSP is complementing photovoltaic solar power because PV systems can't produce energy during the night whereas CSP can.

I'm sure my "liked" is before the 'view' because I pause the video so I can watch little bits over a couple days - I used to tape Tennis matches and just watch them at the right times over a longer time (months - I still haven't finished a Hingis Williams from 99') - you are very relaxing so it's a more valuable video than some other's I watch

My grandparents lived in Placerville, California. Placer mining for gold was a big thing in the Sierra Nevada foothills in the 19th century to the extent that some of the first environmental laws in the USA were enacted because of the massive silt runoff from the mining operations which were starting to fill in the Siusun and San Francisco Bays.

The unfortunate Dutch Afrikaner's - trying to rid themselves of the British and their commercial allies - went on their Great Trek to find autonomy and going North landed in that region with Witwatersrand - of course that meant Diamonds and Gold which meant the Dutch would never be free - as is the case today - $$$ does not equal freedom

*They can now mine 30,000 tons per year of Nickle, Cobalt and Nickle from nodules on the ocean floor over 15,000 feet deep and the environmentalists are having a HEART ATTACK! Again! A good law would be to ban all of these protestors from owning a cell phone, computer and electric car so they will not end up being hypocrites for buying these metals.* What does a hypocrite mean? 1. : A person whose actions contradict their stated beliefs or feelings.
@ourmetallicearthАй бұрын
The point is that we have plenty of reserves on land, there is no need for deep sea mining which is probably environmentally much more harmful and difficult/impossible to regulate, than modern responsibly conducted mining on land.
@johnsluggerАй бұрын
@@ourmetallicearth *You have ZERO proof its more harmful!*
@ourmetallicearthАй бұрын
And you have zero proof that is it not. Nobody knows what the real impact would be compared to responsible onshore mining, although I would be very surprised if responsible onshore mining would not have a much smaller impact. Either way, we should not do deep sea mining unless we know the full picture and can ascertain it is not more harmful.
