Russia there to save the Russians. And to denazifie the country. Dont make them take out the west alltogether. Keep your greed at bay.

Eat your heart out Blackrock

You can forget about westen mining in Ukraine. Its Russia from now on.

This guy just smuggling unhealthy propaganda.Well, .....no credibility.

Talent indeed....in Soviet times the Best Engineers moved into areas like this and made HOMES there. Simple put Slavic people are old fashioned and traditional. Home became home for those who went to the areas where the work was.. Conversely thousands if not millions of peopls in Russia today have ancestors or living relatives in Ukraine today. This is something Western media does not wish Western citizens to know. Becuase like it or not Putin does and will not persecute Ukrainian families in Russia because those families are at home in Russia now, just as Wind Rush Jamaicans who came to the UK in the 1950's call the UK home. No one cares about the people who actually are family...Ukraine and Russians are mostly family. Divided and Conquered for resources truly sad.

Royal Dutch Shell is the old name of Shell folks ....Mark Rutte is Dutch and now heads NATO....his backers won't want him to reconcile and promote peace.

Merci.

the mistake, is not the conflict between ukraine and Russia, but america and Russia

это конфликт не между Россией и Украиной, а Россией и англо-саксами с их прости тутками

The electric car mandate is buried there.

This war is all about owning-controlling wealth from natural resources. Oil &gas resources are all about geology, and so are, in a different way, the Ukranian glacially deposited soils that created some of the best farm lands in the world.

Elementary my dear Watson !!! What is under ground is always more valuable than what is on the surface. Because on the surface stuff has already been dug out and explored. That's why USA was so interested to "FREE Ukrainian people ,that Washington loves to death" from RUSSIAN bears. It couldn't possibly be any ulterior motives other than LOVE AND AFFECTION FOR UKRAINIANS, COULD IT?? I LOVE WHEN AMERICANS ARE SO SELFLESS AND THOUGHTFUL OF OTHER COUNTRIES TO LITERALLY LOVE THE UKRAINIANS TO DEATH. OBVIOUSLY EXTRENISM IN DEFENSE OF LIBERTY IS NO VICE WHEN UKRAINIAN DO THE DYING AND AMERICANS DO THE EARNINGS ! I THINK YOU GOT MY GEOLOGICAL "DRIFT" HERE!! ROSS PEROT USED TO SAY IN HIS PRESIDENTIAL CAMPAIGN OF 1990 THAT ANYBODY WHO SAYS THEY WANT TO HELP THE PEOPLE , PEOPLE SHOULD IMMEDIATELY PUT THEIR HANDS IN THEIR POCKETS BECAUSE THEY HAVE COME FOR PEOPLE'S MONEY. WHAT A WISE CANDIDATE HE WAS, DON'T YOU THINK SO ?

Thank you for putting together this course. I have successfully filled 1.5 subjects in a 5 subject notebook with notes that I can reference if I forget anything that was talked about. By far the most comprehensive into class to geology that I've found online and I appreciate it immensely. I've lived in the Western part of the USA for most of my adult life and being able to now analyze all the fascinating rock structures out here and know to some extent how they came to be fills me with joy. You've unlocked an extra layer of joy when hiking, travelling, and adventuring. Thank you again and I can't wait to watch the rest of your videos. :)

Per l'avvenire usa un puntatore più contrastato! e magari sottotitoli anche in italiano, purché revisionati (le traduzioni automatiche fanno schifo).

My feeling is that it has little to do with the oil and gas. A geopolitical clash between the Wests push up against Russia borders. I believe the American hedgmonic desires are responsible for much of the world's grief.

If there wasnt any coal or natural gas in that area America wouldnt be there trying to steal it.

Moscow wanted to seize these resources in order to eliminate its competitor in Ukraine. What if Ukraine began to trade energy resources and rare earth metals at 5-10% cheaper than Moscow?Then they would receive their supply contracts and drive Moscow out of the European market.

What a Nice Channel you have here. Cheers from a Fellow geologist!

Putin wants to rebuid the soviet union. Its not so much about Ukraine resources.

What about Lithium? Should be also there in the Donbass. And apparently Black Rock wants that desperately. But the Russian won't allow that to happen.

The US and EU have a huge economical interest in Eastern Ukraine, whereas Russia has a huge ethnical interest based on the fact that Eastern Ukraine is dominantly occupied by Russian speaking people! But most of all NATO needs to stand out of the Ukraine a very legitimate demand of Russia!

You (are) matter

Kyiv was mining it, Russia, EU and USA fight for control of it. The losers have always been the people who live there. They have historically worked their own land for an existence making others rich. Slava Donetsk Slava Luhangst.

Excellent presentation. Thank you.

Less than 5 %... Thanks for your analyses! 👍

In the pre-war period, during the industrialization of the Soviet Union, this area was referred to in communist dogma as "the heart of Russia", as the basis of industrialization. The Luhansk and Donetsk regions were added to the agriculturally dominated peasant region of Ukraine by Stalin in the 1920s as a Russian-dominated working-class region for administrative and mainly political-ideological reasons. Workers' and peasants' state. Not because Ukrainians should find Ukrainians.... The Russian-dominated Crimea was given to the (administrative region) Ukraine by the Ukrainian President Nikita Khrushchev in the mid-1950s. That is the official language: ... "given" Funny idea... Chancellor Schröder gives Bavaria to Lower Saxony, and a few years later High-(Standard)-German Language is banned. As succinctly as it is scientifically described in this video, it becomes clear what it is mainly about. this geological treasure is also linked to the industrial zones that have been created directly here and the infrastructure that was mainly built during industrialisation, which the West has already taken away from Ukraine as a result of excessive indebtedness. US Senator Lindsey Graham: Ukraine sits on ‘trillion dollars worth of minerals that could be good for our economy’

There have also been some unique finds deep in its mines.

Бизнес мафий - делает расклады. Политики, расклады - в политические маски обряжают. Пропагандисты, СМИ - транслируют моральные тирады, Что - под списание - продукции от ВПК - под политические маски - с выгодой, под тему о борьбе за демократию, через конфликт - легко сплавляют! Куда бы, - без войны на Украине - подевали бы - накопленные арсеналы? При том, при всём, что - установка - до полумиллиарда - "homo sapiens" - планете - в сокращение! При том, при всём, что - на десятилетия вперёд - контракты - в сотни, в тысячи - из прибыльности миллиардов! Под маскою - борьбы за демократию - магнатам бизнеса - десятилетия в обогащение!

Lithium is the most important mineral just now Or a mineral we don't know about yet but will be the most important mineral in the future

What about finding gold on that mountain is it possible

people like you are what the internet was made for! excellent videos! thank you!

Hoping to see more content on this channel. These slides and presentations are awesome and a great complement to reading about this.

Isn't Ukriane's Lithium resources one of the things the west is after for making batteries for the upcoming ecofriendly market?

❤❤❤❤

You ask why all this? Ok, here's my opinion. It all started in 2014. When the West of Ukrain came to the East. And the descendants of the people who won the Second World War, under pressure from lovers of the “Aryans,” had to consider the accomplices of Hitler and Mussolini as heroes. And speak a different language. As of 2014, Ukraine had already been independent for 23 years. But people could speak their native russian, look at the map of the distribution of languages. And then the Nazis come and say to speak in a foreign language, demolish monuments to heroes, do things that are completely alien to the indigenous population things. And you are right, miners live in Donbass. They did not greet these essentially invaders with flowers, but the way their ancestors met the Germans 70 years ago - with weapons. The only thing that upsets us is the former allies, who also won the war along with The USSR is now supporting the Nazis. All for the sake of 300% profit, right? 😢😢😢

Все это очень интересно, но вы делаете неверные выводы. Не для России эти места интересны, а для Украины. (Не хотят отдавать такой вкусный кусок, на людей им плевать). Это в основном рускоговорящий регион (как и столица, кстати).И они не захотели подвергаться насильственной ассимиляции западными украинцами, навязывающими им чужой язык и героев.Поищите карту языков в Украине.Только не 2023 года, а 2010, или 2012. И сравните с этими геологическими и военными.Потом поищите историческую карту Российской Империи, и посмотрите, кто и где жил в этом регионе.Особенно после Русско-Турецких войны во второй половине 18века. ~1783. This is all very interesting, but you are drawing the wrong conclusions. These places are interesting not for Russia, but for Ukraine. (They don’t want to give away such a tasty piece, they don’t care about people) This is mainly a Russian-speaking region (like the capital, by the way). And they did not want to be subjected to forced assimilation by Western Ukrainians, who were imposing a foreign language and heroes on them. Look for a map of languages ​​in Ukraine. Not 2023, but 2010, or 2012. And compare with these geological and military ones. Then look for a historical map of the Russian Empire, and look , who and where lived in this region. Especially after the Russian-Turkish war in the second half of the 18th century.

Напоминаю, что 90% самых популярных мировых сайтов принадлежат США. Потом мы читаем список, а это лишь одна из стран террористов НАТО. Очень забавно читать, когда эти страны пишут о оккупации или пропаганде. *Полный перечень войн, вооруженных конфликтов, развязанных США за свою историю*

Никакой украины не существовало до революции 1917 года. Так называемые "украинцы" - это искусственная нация, которую создавали из русских людей. КИЕВ - Русский город.Русские отбили это укрепление у хазар, и только потом оно начало превращаться в город. До Киева столицей Руси был Новгород. После захвата Киева поляками,город был выкуплен обратно русским царём Алексеем Михайловичем Тишайшим. Документ до сих пор сохранён. После Великой Отечественной Войны полностью разрушенный город восстановили меньше чем за 30 лет. Было потрачено больше миллиарда рублей. Огромные деньги для того времени. ХАРЬКОВ - русский город. Он был основан в 1630-е гг. Там селились бежавшие от поляков с правобережья Днепра малороссы. Царь Алексей Михайлович построил там крепость и основал в 1656 году Харьковское воеводство. Причём здесь какая-то Украина? СУМЫ - был основан царём Алексеем Михайловичем не позднее 1655 года. Царь разрешил поселиться там беженцам-малороссам, которых убивали поляки. Причём здесь Украина? ПОЛТАВА - была в XVII веке центром прорусски настроенной Малороссии. За это предатель гетман Выговский (что-то вроде нынешних Кличков и Яценюков) напал на город и продал его жителей в рабство крымским татарам. Причём здесь Украина? ДНЕПРОПЕТРОВСК - был основан Екатериной II в 1776 году и назывался Екатеринославом. Причём здесь Украина? ЛУГАНСК - был основан в 1795 году, когда Екатерина II основала на реке Лугань чугунолитейный завод. Для работы на нём в Луганск приехали жить выходцы из центральных и северо-западных губерний России. Причём здесь Украина? ХЕРСОН - был основан Екатериной II в 1778 году для строительства русского флота. Строительство осуществил Потёмкин. Причём здесь Украина? ДОНЕЦК - был основан Александром II в 1869 году при строительстве металлургического завода в Юзовке. Причём здесь Украина? НИКОЛАЕВ - был основан Екатериной II в 1789 году. В это время Потёмкин строил там корабль "Святой Николай". Причём здесь вообще Украина? ОДЕССА - была основана Екатериной II в 1794 году на месте крепости, построенной чуть раньше Суворовым. Причём здесь Украина? ЧЕРНИГОВ - один из древнейших русских городов, он существовал ещё в начале 10 века. В 1503 году он вошёл в состав России. В 1611 году поляки его разрушили и отобрали эту территорию у русских. Но в 1654 году Чернигов вернулся к России и с тех пор всегда был её составной частью. Спрашивается: причём здесь Украина? СИМФЕРОПОЛЬ - был основан Екатериной II в 1784 году. Его построил Потёмкин на месте военного лагеря Суворова и рядом с татарским поселением. Причём здесь Украина, не сможет сказать ни один учёный. СЕВАСТОПОЛЬ - основан Екатериной II в 1783 году на месте крепости, построенной ранее Суворовым. Строил город Потёмкин. Причём здесь Украина? МАРИУПОЛЬ - был основан в 1778 году Екатериной II. Она поселила там греков - переселенцев из Крыма. Причём здесь Украина? КРИВОЙ РОГ -был основан Екатериной II в 1775 году. Причём здесь Украина? ЗАПОРОЖЬЕ - был основан Екатериной II в 1770 году и назывался Александровском. Причём здесь Украина? КИРОВОГРАД - был основан в 1754 году русской императрицей Елизаветой Петровной. Назывался он Елисаветградом. Причём здесь Украина, как, впрочем, и Киров?

Will filling the soil cracks with more soil help?

I have huge soil cracks in my backyard. Will it take lots and lots of water to embd those cracks?

You Americans are so materialistic... Russia was perfectly fine with all the riches of this region while it was neutral zone, but you had to send NATO there.

I suspect the west attempting to force trans-culture on Russia might be as great or greater cause of war as the geology. Just a hunch.

US vice - oil RU vice - gas

I know this video is a few years old now, but at 5:58 does the graph refer to depth below sea level, or just depth below the surface of the crust? Thank you

Very good info

The most impprtabt factor is that ukraine with russia have the most fertile lands in the world, and most of this agricultural lands are in all south eastern ukraine.

Afganistan better resources and more valuables!.

Awesome, thanks for your analysis. Can you do a video on the gas fields/natural resources of the gaza strip and how it contributes to how the Israeli Army behaves post oct 7th?

Great video, I start my geology degree next week and I'll watch all these in the next week to get a head start

These maps explain the $12 trillion worth of resources Lindsay Graham is so excited about, and why he has no qualms about 500,000 dead Ukrainian soldiers.
