International Conflict, Western World Threats and Geopolitical Intelligence
Vast quantities of resources may be hiding beneath the ocean floor. But who owns it? Countries on the coasts are laying claim to ever larger chunks of seawater. But many of the claims are disputed. By SPIEGEL Staff more…

Evolution Deep Sea Vents and Life's Origins http://www.myspace.com/acorvettes Bacteria found deep in the ocean in the volcanic regions of mid-ocean ridges suggest a possible scenario for the beginning of life on earth. Ocean water seeps into cracks created by sea-floor spreading at the mid-ocean ridges and is heated by magma from inside the earth. Water in these hydrothermal vents reaches temperatures of 375 degrees C and higher and is rich in dissolved minerals. The hot water rises from the vents in geysers and meets cold ocean water, causing minerals to precipitate out of solution as the water cools. In some places compounds of iron and sulfides form "chimneys" on top of the vents. Such an extreme environment seemed unlikely to support life given the conditions of temperature, pressure, and absence of light for photosynthesis.

Collecting Rocks and Minerals http://www.tmwmedia.com/physical_geography2.html See an excerpt from this fantastic title from the Physical Geography II series, from TMW Media. The Earth is made of rock from the tallest mountains to the floor of the ocean. Rocks are all around most of us. Thousands of different types of rocks and minerals have been found on Earth and this program examines how rocks are continually changing. It looks at the types of rocks - Igneous, Sedimentary and Metamorphic and teaches students how to start their own collection including; how to identify rocks, where to find rocks, collecting equipment and housing and enlarging their collection.

Peter's U.P. Geology Peter Hayes explains his interpretation of a 100+ year old topographic map of the Dickinson County Michigan iron and mineral deposits and their formation billions of years ago. Basicly three ancient comtinants came together and metamorphosed an ancient sea floor before life formed on the planet. I plan to use these rocks in my glazes. Kinda like reading a treasure map in the hold of a ship ah? Tags: ceramics, gems, geology, iron, minerals, pottery, Upper_Michigan, yooper |

Valley of Desolation, Dominica The Valley of Desolation is crossed en route to the Boiling Lake. What was once a lush forested area appears now to be devoid of life. The floor of the Valley is covered with mosses and lichens, and scattered around are grasses and the yellow and white flowered Bromeliad, Pitcairnia spicata var. sulpurea. The harsh environment of the Valley has limited the wildlife to lizards, cockroaches, stoneflies, mayflies and ants. Scattered throughout the purple-gren valley floor are brightly coloured hot springs. The greys, blues, blacks, greens, yellow, browns and oranges are the result of minerals from the water which have been deposited on the stream beds. Some of the rocks are also covered with yellow sulphur crystals. Hot boiling mud, mini-geysers and fumaroles are scattered in the Valley.... Tags: Corps, Desolation, Dominica, of, Peace, Valley |
