This podcast episode features a discussion with a Geological Survey and Services Program Manager Jason D. McClaughry regarding the unique characteristics of the Wildcat Mountain Caldera in Oregon. A caldera is described as a massive volcanic depression formed when a volcano collapses into its own emptied magma chamber. Unlike famous landmarks like Crater Lake, the Wildcat Mountain Caldera is approximately 41.8 million years old, meaning its circular shape has been hidden by millions of years of erosion. The experts use a puzzle analogy to explain how mapping and data collection allow geologists to reconstruct the history of these ancient, invisible landscapes.For more reading:DOGAMI Bulletin 108, Geology of the North Half of the Lower Crooked River Basin, Crook, Deschutes, Jefferson, and Wheeler Counties, Oregon, by Jason D.

Maura Kolb, President of Dryden Gold Corp (TSX.V: DRY) (OTCQX: DRYGF), joins me for an exploration update on some of the recent news releases with the most up-to-date drill results at the Elora-Jubilee and Big Master and trends at the Gold Rock Camp, and touching up on the Hyndman and Sherridon regional targets, across their Dryden Gold District, in Northwestern Ontario, Canada.   We start off discussing how this year's exploration program is continuing to build up the high-grade drill results from last year's drill program, confirming the thesis around the 3 geological deformation faults and folds at the Elora-Jubilee and Big Master trends at the Gold Rock Camp.   Drilling at Jubilee tested between 150 to 200 meters with the goal of collecting structural data to improve in predicting high-grade gold mineralization at depth. Deeper down-plunge testing will begin this summer, and a second drill rig will be deployed to continue to fully define the high-grade footprint at Gold Rock. The 2026 drill program has now expanded to 45,000 meters.      *Jubilee Drill Highlights:   Hole DGR-054 returned 2.92 g/t gold over 14.50 meters including 6.79 g/t gold over 5.00 meters also including two high-grade intercepts of 28.80 g/t gold over 0.40 meters and 15.30 g/t gold over 0.60 meters (Figure 1, Table 1). Hole DGR-056 returned 2.48 g/t gold over 12.65 meters including 33.50 g/t gold over 0.50 meters. Confirmation of the multiple hanging wall and footwall mineralized stacked structures across Gold Rock, including Hole DGR-053 intercepting 0.73 g/t gold over 9.58 meters.   Two drill holes, on the Big Master Gold System at Gold Rock, tested the near-surface mineralization above (up-dip) from the recent Sparrow discovery. The third hole intersected Barrelman on BM1 and Treasure on BM2 expanding these zones at depth. The latest results validate the Company's exploration model and support an expanded 2026 drill program at Gold Rock. A second drill rig has been contracted and is scheduled for deployment on July 1.   *Big Master Drill Highlights:   Hole DGR-051 returned 3.24 g/t gold over 14.77 meters including 29.55 g/t gold over 1.35 meters at Sparrow 88.00 meters from surface. Hole DGR-052 returned 1.02 g/t gold over 13.50 meters including 8.88 g/t gold over 1.00 meter also at Sparrow 125.00 meters from surface. Hole DGR-057 expanded mineralization at both Treasure and Barrelman.     *Maura encouraged investors to further inspect these drill results within the context of 3D modeling tools over at Mining Hub: https://mininghub.com/3d/v/6dcjgqzm     We expanded the conversation to review the potential for similar look-alike types of deposits to exist along the multi-kilometer Gold Rock mineralized trend, in a “string-of-pearls” thesis, where the Mud Lake area will be the next target tested with drilling in 2026.   We touch upon the initial groundwork and drilling at the Hyndman regional area, with a lot of follow up work underway based on the exploration results released back on April 21st.   Maura reiterated the importance of the large soil sampling and channel sampling programs across their district-scale land package, and how it will inform follow up targeting, when used in concert with geophysical surveys.   Click here to follow the latest news from Dryden Gold   Click here to visit the “Link Tree” to different Dryden Gold media outlets     If you have any questions for Maura, Trey, or the team at Dryden Gold, then please email them into me at  Shad@kereport.com.   In full disclosure, Shad is a shareholder of Dryden Gold at the time of this recording, and may choose to buy or sell shares at any time.     For more market commentary & interview summaries, subscribe to our Substacks:   The KE Report: https://kereport.substack.com/ Shad's resource market commentary: https://excelsiorprosperity.substack.com/     Investment disclaimer: This content is for informational and educational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice, an offer, or a solicitation to buy or sell any security.

Interview with Allen Sabet, CEO of Mogotes Metals Inc.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/mogotes-metals-tsxvmog-drilling-filo-sur-along-filo-del-sol-trend-results-in-may-june-9532Recording date: 19th May 2026Mogotes Metals has reported a significant high-grade copper-gold discovery at its Filo Sur project in Argentina, marking a pivotal step in advancing the largely underexplored property. Drilling at the Albor target intersected 86 meters grading 0.7% copper, 0.55 g/t gold, 2.7 g/t silver, and 169 ppm molybdenum, including a higher-grade core of 43 meters at 1.1% copper and 0.82 g/t gold. These results exceed all previous drilling on the property and confirm the presence of robust mineralisation near surface, a key factor for potential open-pit development.The project lies directly adjacent to the Filo del Sol deposit, one of the most important copper discoveries in recent decades. Geological features at Albor, including multiple mineralisation phases and hypogene epithermal overprinting, closely resemble those observed at Filo del Sol. Mineral assemblages and alteration patterns suggest proximity to a porphyry center, indicating potential for a much larger system.Despite this progress, the property remains in an early exploration stage. Mogotes has drilled only 6,800 meters across an 8-kilometer strike length, with approximately half of assay results still pending. Multiple additional targets identified through geophysical and geochemical surveys remain untested, highlighting substantial upside potential.The company is well funded, with $42 million in cash to support aggressive follow-up drilling. A new campaign is scheduled for November 2026, allowing rapid advancement of priority targets once remaining results are received. Beyond Argentina, Mogotes has also acquired projects in Kazakhstan and Montana to enable year-round exploration and reduce reliance on a single asset.Overall, the discovery at Albor strengthens the company's geological thesis and positions Mogotes Metals as an emerging player in a highly prospective copper district at a time of growing global demand for the metal.View Mogotes Metals' company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/mogotes-metalsSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

fWotD Episode 3301: Silverthrone Caldera Welcome to featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia's finest articles.The featured article for Tuesday, 19 May 2026, is Silverthrone Caldera.The Silverthrone Caldera, also referred to as the Silverthrone Caldera Complex, is a volcano in the Range 2 Coast Land District of British Columbia, Canada. It lies within the Pacific Ranges of the Coast Mountains and reaches an elevation of 2,860 metres (9,380 feet), although some sources give the elevation as high as 3,160 m (10,370 ft). The caldera is about 25 by 20 kilometres (16 by 12 miles) in size and has been deeply eroded, resulting in the formation of rugged topography. Several glacial meltwater streams originating from the volcano flow through valleys in the Pacific Ranges; among these streams are the Pashleth, Selman and Catto creeks and the Kingcome and Wakeman rivers. The caldera contains several named mountains, including Mounts Somolenko, Overill, Kinch, Squire, Ardern and Calli, as well as Petrovsky Peak and Silverthrone Mountain.Volcanic rocks deposited by eruptions of the Silverthrone Caldera and associated vents include rhyolites, dacites, andesites and basaltic andesites. They are exposed in valleys, but at higher elevations they are largely buried under glacial ice of the 3,600 km2 (1,400 mi2) Ha-Iltzuk Icefield. These rocks comprise three geological units: a 750,000-year-old basal breccia unit, a 400,000-year-old unit of overlying lava flows and domes, and a less than 13,000-year-old series of lava flows and pyroclastic cones. Small magnitude, shallow earthquakes have been recorded near the volcano since 1980, but they have not been demonstrated to be magmatic in origin. The main potential hazard posed by future volcanism is to air traffic if explosive eruptions were to occur from the caldera.The Silverthrone Caldera was a source of obsidian for Indigenous peoples during the pre-contact era. Geological studies have been conducted at the volcano since at least the 1960s, but its very remote location has impeded detailed fieldwork. As a result, the eruptive history of the caldera is poorly known and its affinity to the Garibaldi Volcanic Belt remains unclear. The volcano was studied in the 1970s as a potential source of geothermal energy. It can be reached by helicopter or, with great difficulty, by trekking on foot through valleys.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 01:05 UTC on Tuesday, 19 May 2026.For the full current version of the article, see Silverthrone Caldera on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Bluesky at @wikioftheday.com.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm neural Justin.

"We know he didn't disappear. He had too much going for him here. It's not like him. It's 100 percent not like him."For a young geologist with the right skills and the right tools, 1970s Wyoming was a place of opportunity. The oil crisis of 1973 had sent shock-waves through the American economy and suddenly, the vast mineral deposits beneath the west's plains and hills were incredibly valuable.In May of 1976, a twenty-five-year-old geologist from Mead, Colorado, drove his specialized geological truck into the open country around Gillette, Wyoming to conduct a routine exploration trip and was never seen again...Learn more about this podcast at http://unresolved.meCheck out the podcast store at unresolved.dashery.comIf you would like to support this podcast, consider heading to https://www.patreon.com/unresolvedpod to become a Patron or ProducerBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/unresolved-a-true-crime-mystery-podcast--3266604/support.

Much of our understanding about the earthquakes, volcanic eruptions and floods that shaped the geology of the Pacific Northwest comes from Western scientists. But those records almost always overlook the oral traditions of Native American tribes who witnessed those events.   An exhibit at the Oregon Museum of Science and Industry in Portland looks at the eruption of Mount Mazama, the Ice Age floods and other geological events through the perspective of the Nez Perce and other Columbia Basin tribes. “Heads & Hearts: Seeing the Landscape through Nez Perce Eyes” is on display through Feb. 16.   Geologists Roger Amerman and Ellen Bishop created the exhibit, which originally appeared at the Josephy Center for Arts & Culture in Joseph. They join us to talk about how Native oral traditions can — and should — inform modern science.  

CEO of Radisson Mining, discusses the company's recent drilling activities at the O'Brien mine, highlighting the success of their new drilling strategy and the geological implications of their findings. He emphasizes the high success rate of their drilling program and the continuity of mineralization, while also addressing the upcoming resource estimation and market expectations.

Modern life trains us to move faster. You must produce more, respond quicker and stay endlessly available. I give your soul permission to refuse this pace. In Episode Six of the Winter Soul Care Series, Alexander Blue Feather invites you into a therapeutic, imaginal space to explore geological speed. This is the pace at which the soul actually heals, remembers, and transforms. Drawing from Francis Weller's In the Absence of the Ordinary, this episode reframes slowness not as a metaphor, but as medicine. You'll explore the cost of our addiction to speed, the loss of intimacy with place and body, and why constant urgency leaves us spiritually exhausted. Through story, reflection, and grounded teaching, Alexander introduces three essential practices for restoring soul rhythm: patience, restraint, and reciprocity. Geological speed moves in seasons, layers, and cycles. It values stillness, spaciousness, and reciprocal relationship with the living world. This episode offers a powerful counterbalance to modern frenzy, and a practical invitation to slow down, listen, and return to what matters most. If you're feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or spiritually tired, this episode offers a different way forward. One rooted in time, earth, and soul.

What powered the pyramids has always been the missing question. In this second part of our conversation with Geoffrey Drumm,  @thelandofchem  , explore a provocative but physically grounded idea: that ancient Egyptian structures tapped into natural electricity: earth currents, lightning, and conductive geology. They channeled this electricity to drive large-scale chemical processes at the pyramids, which we discussed in Part 1. Drawing on field evidence, climate history, and experimental modeling, the discussion reframes Giza not as a ceremonial site, but as an engineered landscape tuned to environmental energy. If this view is even partly correct, it suggests ancient technology didn't fight nature for power...it listened to it.Part 1: https://youtu.be/7vuo5dl5bF4PATREON https://www.patreon.com/c/demystifysciPARADOX LOST PRE-SALE: https://buy.stripe.com/7sY7sKdoN5d29eUdYddEs0bHOMEBREW MUSIC - Check out our new album!Hard Copies (Vinyl): FREE SHIPPING https://demystifysci-shop.fourthwall.com/products/vinyl-lp-secretary-of-nature-everything-is-so-good-hereStreaming:https://secretaryofnature.bandcamp.com/album/everything-is-so-good-herePARADIGM DRIFThttps://demystifysci.com/paradigm-drift-show00:00 Go!

SpaceTime with Stuart Gary Gary - Series 29 Episode 15In this episode of SpaceTime, we uncover intriguing discoveries about Mercury's geological activity, NASA's innovative Dragonfly mission to Titan, and the environmental impacts of rocket fuel pollution.Mercury's Surprising StreaksA new study reveals bright streaks, or lineae, on Mercury's surface, suggesting the planet is not as geologically inactive as previously thought. Researchers from the University of Bern utilized machine learning to analyze over 100,000 images from NASA's MESSENGER spacecraft, discovering that these streaks are likely caused by the outgassing of volatile materials from beneath Mercury's crust. This finding indicates ongoing geological processes and will be further explored by the BepiColombo mission, set to reach Mercury later this year.NASA's Dragonfly Mission to TitanNASA is developing the Dragonfly, a car-sized rotocopter designed to explore Saturn's moon Titan, which features methane and ethane lakes. Scheduled for launch in 2028, Dragonfly will utilize Titan's dense atmosphere to fly to various locations, examining environments that may harbor organic materials essential for life. The mission builds on the success of the Ingenuity rotocopter on Mars, with extensive testing underway to ensure optimal performance in Titan's unique conditions.Rocket Fuel Pollution and the Ozone LayerA recent study highlights the damaging effects of burning rocket fuels, such as kerosene, on Earth's ozone layer. The report indicates that the rapid growth of the rocket launch industry is exacerbating this issue, particularly affecting regions like Antarctica and parts of Australia.

The icy-white crust of Arctic permafrost is melting, and increased plant growth is turning the glacial north green. Metals like iron, once locked inside the ice, are leaching into hundreds of Arctic rivers, giving them an orange hue. Vivid changes may catch our eye, yet invisible shifts are also afoot. Microbes locked in the frozen ground since the age of the mammoths can now be revived when they thaw. We're exploring the consequences of changes in permafrost, how AI may help us better understand Greenland ice loss, and get reactions from scientists about the Trump administration's attempt to dismantle the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR), one of the premier climate and weather researcher centers in the world.

In this week's podcast we're talking about the tricky challenge of safely managing and disposing of the UK's expanding stock of nuclear waste. Creating a Geological Disposal Facility.For more than 70 years, the UK has benefited from nuclear technology - generating low-carbon electricity, advancing medicine, supporting industry, and contributing to national defence. Alongside those benefits comes responsibility. Because the most hazardous radioactive wastes produced over those decades will remain radioactive for many thousands of years.And while they are currently stored safely at a number of surface facilities across the country, - as we heard on the podcast in episode 126 last year – those stores require ongoing monitoring, management, and periodic rebuilding. They are secure for the short to medium term - but they are not permanent solutions.My guests today are tackling that very issue. Malcolm Orford is Head of major permissions and Neil Hyatt, chief scientific advisor at Nuclear Waste Services who are leading the hugely ambitious and challenging project to develop a Geological Disposal Facility for long term disposal of this waste.. As we will hear, it is one of the largest environmental protection programmes in its history: a deep underground facility, between 200 and 1,000 metres below ground, designed to isolate higher-activity radioactive waste within engineered vaults and rock formations, using a multi-barrier system to keep it safely contained long after today's institutions no longer exist.Nuclear Waste Services is leading this programme on behalf of the Nuclear Decommissioning Authority. Its dual challenge is to find a suitable geological site and identify a willing host community in which to embed the facility. Progress is being made with community partnerships established in Cumbria, alongside extensive scientific evaluation, engineering studies, and international collaboration. But it all comes at a huge cost over vast timescales and in often uncharted technical grounds.ResourcesNuclear Waste ServicesThe Geological Disposal FacilityVideo explaining the challengeCommunity engagementGDF benefits

James Kamis discusses his theory that oceanic warm blobs, such as the one in the northern Pacific Ocean, are primarily caused by geological activities like underwater volcanic eruptions and tectonic movements rather than atmospheric conditions. Drawing on evidence from recent high-resolution ocean floor mapping and historical data on seismic and volcanic activities, Kamis highlights the significant role of geological features in heating ocean waters. He also challenges the mainstream view held by NASA and NOAA, advocating for a more comprehensive consideration of geological factors in climate studies.00:00 Introduction to the Ocean Warming Hotspot00:48 Understanding the Warm Blob01:45 Geological Features of the Ocean Floor05:06 The Pacific Ring of Fire07:00 Mapping the Ocean Floor08:40 Volcanic Activity and Climate Impact10:21 Geological Activity in Japan15:19 The Kamchatka Peninsula18:23 Characteristics of the Warm Blob23:29 Cool Blob Phenomenon27:21 Other Warm Blobs Across the Ocean28:56 Heat Transfer to the Arctic Ocean30:01 Volcanic Activity in the Pacific Ocean30:51 Axial Volcano and Seismic Activity33:15 El Nino and Geological Evidence36:50 Gulf Stream and Geological Impacts40:38 Geological Theories and Predictions47:24 Books and Further Reading52:21 Final Thoughts and AcknowledgementsJames Kamis articles: https://climatechangedispatch.com/?s=kamisJune 2023 book by James E.

The Darwin-Wallace framework stands tall, but there are places where the seams show, where life presses back with its own kind of intention. Scott Turner guides us through those overlooked corners, tracing the ideas that slipped between theory and experience. We find organisms not as passive machines, but as players in a deeper, older rhythm. And in that recognition, the story of evolution widens into something more awake, more alive.PATREON https://www.patreon.com/c/demystifysciPARADIGM DRIFThttps://demystifysci.com/paradigm-drift-showHOMEBREW MUSIC - Check out our new album!Hard Copies (Vinyl): FREE SHIPPING https://demystifysci-shop.fourthwall.com/products/vinyl-lp-secretary-of-nature-everything-is-so-good-hereStreaming:https://secretaryofnature.bandcamp.com/album/everything-is-so-good-here00:00 Go! 00:09:00 Evolution's Philosophical Foundations 00:12:00 Linnaeus and Early Taxonomy 00:18:00 Idealism vs. Darwinian Thought 00:23:27 Ideological Divide in Evolutionary Theory 00:25:03 Early Evolutionary Inquiry and Natural Theology 00:29:00 Darwin's Voyage and Observations 00:33:57 Intelligence, Purpose, and Evolution 00:37:30 Geological and Evolutionary Gradualism vs. Catastrophism 00:41:40 Darwin & Wallace: Collaboration and Legacy 00:46:34 Mutationism vs. Natural Selection 00:49:44 Reconciling Mutationism and Darwinism 00:53:00 The Eclipse of Darwinism and Rediscovery of Mendel 00:56:14 Evolution, Loss of Purpose and Agency 01:00:30 Darwin's Pangenesis Theory 01:09:06 Biology, Culture, and Evolution 01:11:07 Evolutionary Theories and Future Directions #history, #consciousness, #evolution, #criticalthinking,#physicspodcast, #philosophypodcast MERCH: Rock some DemystifySci gear : https://demystifysci-shop.fourthwall.com/AMAZON: Do your shopping through this link: https://amzn.to/3YyoT98DONATE: https://bit.ly/3wkPqaDSUBSTACK: https://substack.com/@UCqV4_7i9h1_V7hY48eZZSLw@demystifysci RSS: https://anchor.fm/s/2be66934/podcast/rssMAILING LIST: https://bit.ly/3v3kz2S SOCIAL: - Discord: https://discord.gg/MJzKT8CQub- Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/DemystifySci- Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/DemystifySci/- Twitter: https://twitter.com/DemystifySciMUSIC: -Shilo Delay: https://g.co/kgs/oty671

3/4. Encountering Bennu: Unexpected Terrain and Science — Dante Lauretta — Asteroid Bennu presented surprising geological characteristics, displaying unexpectedly rocky, boulder-strewn terrain rather than the predicted smooth, "beach-like" surface indicated by telescopic observations. Bennu, a dark, compositionally active object, contained abundant carbon, complex organic molecules, and water locked within clay mineral matrices. Lauretta's team developed innovative "bullseye tag" guidance technology to navigate the treacherous and hazardous terrain, successfully executing sample collection using the TAGSAM (Touch And Go Sample Acquisition Mechanism), which yielded an unexpectedly substantial sample mass. 1958

Wednesday 19 November 2025 To hear the fascinating FULL discussion, become a MEMBER today and enjoy this and other full featured content. “Reconquest” is a militant, engaging, and informative Catholic radio program featuring interviews with interesting guests as well as commentary by your host. It is a radio-journalistic extension of the Crusade of Saint Benedict Center.

Join us as we dig into one of the biggest deceptions in modern science — the myth of uniformitarianism! Eric Hovind, and our guest, Dr. Terry Mortensen, will expose how this idea, first popularized by Charles Lyell in the 1800's, completely rewrote how people view Earth's history, and not for the better. Before Lyell, many great scientists studied the world through the lens of Scripture, recognizing the Bible as the true record of Earth's past. But when Lyell began assuming that “the present is the key to the past,” he planted seeds of doubt that grew into today's evolutionary thinking. His assumptions about ancient rocks didn't just change geology, they helped lead generations away from believing God's Word. We trace how this intellectual rebellion against the Bible took root and continues to shape modern science, culture, and education. With help from the late Milt Marcy's eye-opening book, “Exposing the Hidden Roots of the Evolutionary Agenda: The Emperors Who Had No Clothes,” we'll pull back the curtain on one of history's greatest scientific smokescreens. Don't miss this powerful episode as we uncover how a few flawed ideas about the past set the stage for a full-blown war on biblical truth, and why it's time to return to the real foundation — God's Word.   Watch this Podcast on Video at: https://creationtoday.org/on-demand-classes/the-geological-scam-that-hijacked-science-creation-today-show-450/  Join Eric LIVE each Wednesday at 12 Noon CT for conversations with Experts.

In this episode of SpaceTime, we explore groundbreaking discoveries that reshape our understanding of Mars, the Moon, and the Milky Way Galaxy.Ancient Oceans on Mars: Geological Evidence RevealedA new study published in the journal Geophysical Research Letters presents compelling geological evidence that Mars' Northern Hemisphere was once home to a vast ocean. Lead author Chris from the University of Arkansas discusses how comparisons between river rocks on Earth and Martian sediment reveal ancient river deltas and backwater zones, suggesting that liquid water flowed on the Red Planet, increasing the possibility of past life. This episode delves into the processes of sedimentation and erosion that shaped Mars' landscape, providing insights into its watery past.The Moon's South Pole-Aitken Basin: Unveiling Impact MysteriesA fresh analysis of the Moon's largest impact crater, the South Pole-Aitken Basin, sheds light on its formation and the Moon's geological history. Researchers have discovered that this massive crater's shape indicates an impact from the north, challenging previous assumptions. As the Artemis missions prepare to land near this basin, they will have the opportunity to study material excavated from the lunar interior, potentially unlocking secrets about the Moon's evolution and the asymmetries in its crust.Nancy Chris Roman Space Telescope: Mapping the Milky WayNASA's upcoming Nancy Chris Roman Space Telescope is set to revolutionise our understanding of the Milky Way's interstellar medium. This mission will map around 20 billion stars, using infrared light to penetrate the dust clouds obscuring our view. Chief investigator Catherine Zucker explains how this data will refine our models of star formation and the galaxy's structure, while also addressing the ongoing mysteries of galactic spiral patterns and their role in star birth.www.spacetimewithstuartgary.com✍️ Episode ReferencesGeophysical Research Lettershttps://agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/journal/19448007Naturehttps://www.nature.com/natureNASA Nancy Chris Roman Space Telescopehttps://roman.gsfc.nasa.gov/Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/spacetime-your-guide-to-space-astronomy--2458531/support.Ancient Oceans on Mars: Geological Evidence RevealedThe Moon's South Pole-Aitken Basin: Unveiling Impact MysteriesNancy Chris Roman Space Telescope: Mapping the Milky Way(00:00) Evidence of ancient oceans on Mars(10:15) New insights into the Moon's largest impact crater(19:30) The upcoming Nancy Chris Roman Space Telescope mission(27:00) Science Robert: Heatwaves and their impact on global mortality

Interview with Jean Lafleur, Technical Adviser, Lafleur MineralsOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/lafleur-minerals-cse-lflr-positioning-for-near-term-gold-production-7636Recording date: 24th September 2025Lafleur Minerals is emerging as a unique player in Quebec's gold sector by combining operational infrastructure with a growing mineral base in the prolific Val-d'Or camp. At the heart of its strategy is the fully permitted Beacon Mill, a 500-750 ton per day processing facility located near Val-d'Or. Unlike competitors who must wait years for permitting and construction, Lafleur can restart operations for just $5-6 million, with expected gold recovery rates exceeding 97%. This operational advantage not only provides immediate revenue opportunities through toll milling but also underpins the company's acquisition strategy of targeting smaller deposits within a 100-kilometer radius—resources that larger producers typically overlook.The company's flagship Swanson gold project is undergoing an ambitious expansion under the guidance of Technical Adviser Jean Lafleur. Recent drilling has expanded the property's size five to six times, confirming mineralization across a strike length of more than two kilometers. Geological analysis highlights an orogenic gold system with both classic quartz vein mineralization and sulfide-rich zones, offering near-surface, open-pit potential. The company is targeting a 500,000 to 1 million ounce resource, positioning Swanson as a key growth driver alongside the mill.High gold prices exceeding $3,600 per ounce create especially favorable conditions for Lafleur's model. With infrastructure already in place, near-surface deposits, and a scalable milling capacity, the company can generate cash flow faster and at lower cost than traditional exploration-driven peers. By leveraging its mill, Lafleur can build a pipeline of deposits—historical mines, new discoveries, or neighboring properties—to secure long-term feed and multi-year production horizons.Backed by Jean Lafleur's decades of geological experience and the established logistics of Val-d'Or, Lafleur Minerals is positioned not only as an exploration company but as a vertically integrated developer with immediate revenue potential and a clear growth trajectory in Canada's most prolific gold camp.Learn more: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/lafleur-mineralsSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

In this episode of SpaceTime, we uncover the secrets of ancient geology, explore the watery past of an asteroid, and delve into the origins of globular clusters.Supercontinent Breakup RevealedScientists have made significant strides in understanding the breakup of the supercontinent Rodinia, which occurred over 800 million years ago. Research conducted on rare minerals in Outback Australia has revealed how niobium-rich carbonatites rose through fault zones during tectonic rifting, providing insights into the geological processes that shaped our planet. These findings not only illuminate the history of Rodinia but also highlight the importance of niobium in modern technologies, such as electric vehicles and advanced alloys.Water Activity on Asteroid RichieExciting new research confirms that liquid water once flowed on the parent body of the near-Earth asteroid Richie, challenging previous assumptions about water activity on asteroids. Analysis of rock samples returned by Japan's Hayabusa2 mission has shown evidence of water movement through Ryugu's rocks, indicating that carbon-rich asteroids may have played a more significant role in delivering water to Earth than previously thought. This discovery has profound implications for our understanding of planetary formation and the conditions that made Earth habitable.Origins of Globular ClustersAstronomers are closer to solving the mystery of globular clusters, dense stellar systems that have puzzled scientists for centuries. Recent high-resolution computer simulations have revealed multiple pathways for their formation, suggesting that some may originate from satellite dwarf galaxies stripped of their outer stars during galactic mergers. This breakthrough could lead to new insights into dark matter and the formation of the universe's earliest stars.www.spacetimewithstuartgary.com✍️ Episode ReferencesGeological Magazinehttps://www.tandfonline.com/journals/tgeo20Naturehttps://www.nature.com/Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/spacetime-space-astronomy--2458531/support.Supercontinent Breakup RevealedWater Activity on Asteroid RichieOrigins of Globular Clusters

PREVIEW 6: Investigating Mysterious Martian Slope Streaks John Batchelor speaks with Bob Zimmerman about unexplained geological features on Mars called slope streaks. These features resemble stains or avalanches but do not alter topography and lack debris. They sometimes even flow uphill. Theories suggest causes like dust or brine, but the exact mechanism is unknown. The Curiosity rover recently captured an image of a potential slope streak, offering a unique opportunity to study them closely and understand their origin. 1954

We discuss how various factors, including gravitational influences from the Moon and Sun, tectonic movements, and even human activities, affect Earth's rotation. This episode also highlights the implications of these changes on our timekeeping systems and the necessity of leap seconds to maintain accuracy in clocks and navigation systems.Gilmour Space's Ares 1 Rocket Launch PreparationsGilmour Space is gearing up for the maiden test flight of its Ares 1 orbital rocket after previous launch attempts were postponed due to technical glitches and weather conditions. We delve into the rocket's design, which includes a unique hybrid propulsion system, and discuss the significance of this launch as Australia's first all-Australian designed and built launch vehicle since the 1970s.Revising Earth's Geological TimelineA groundbreaking study suggests that Earth's first solid crust formed from a magma ocean around 4.5 billion years ago, shortly after a massive impact event that created the Moon. This research challenges long-held beliefs about the formation of continents and the onset of plate tectonics, indicating that the chemical signatures of continental crust may have originated much earlier than previously thought. We explore the implications of this study for our understanding of Earth's early geological history and the evolution of life.www.spacetimewithstuartgary.com✍️ Episode ReferencesNature Journalhttps://www.nature.com/natureNASAhttps://www.nasa.gov/Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/spacetime-space-astronomy--2458531/support.
