    Pressure blowouts happen at oil fields all the time, under much less pressure. A magma chamber is an exponential increase in PSI. I would not want to be around the drill site.

      A magma chamber and a hydrocarbon reservoir are two totally different things.
      There have been two documented examples of boreholes intersecting magma pockets. All that happens is that a small amount of magma enters the borehole and quickly cools and solidifies..usually resulting in the drill string becoming stuck.

      to add: thinking it through, lava would/could not come out of the ground unless you had tremendous amounts of pressure, air/gas what else could it be, to make tons of rock, solid or liquid, its rock, and weighs tons, the pressure at hand must be.., magma. lastly, i cant see magma as underground lava and model our subsurface ideas from that like everyone seems to do. it looks cool huh.

    People don't seem to understand they don't have to pump lava or drill into molten rock. They only need to perfect drilling into extremely hot rock for a geothermal loop to produce unlimited steam. But rock this hot has it's own serious problems that need to be overcome for useful drilling, and this is a step in that direction.

    1:43 what are you talking about? The IDDP-1 drillhole hit magma all the way back in 2008, and now they are only doing it again, but on purpose. Also, magma was drilled into at Kīlauea starting with the Kīlauea Iki eruption as far back as 1959, for many years until 1988, and then again also in 2008 (big year for drilling into magma), while drilling for the Puna Geothermal Field. Magma has also been drilled into at Menengai Caldera in Kenya twice, between 2011 and 2014. The KMT (Krafla Magma Testbed) is just following in the footsteps of these projects and trying to better harness the energy.

      Thanks for the comments. Script should have probably been more clear what "drilling into magma successfully" means (i.e. without getting the drill bit obliterated and the hole blocked). This video talks about the 2008 IDDP-1 drilling at 8:04 and for the sake of simplicity and story I tried to keep this focussed on Iceland. Appreciate the feedback.

    While a drill hole 30,000 feet deep is so narrow as to make the idea of a magma blow-out remote, it is well to study the example of diatremes. Basically a mile wide hole hundreds of miles deep through the crust into the mantle, it is proportional to these deep wells. I asked a geologist what it would be like to see a diatreme erupt, and he said "you would die"

      @@AdamZimmerman-c6i Not necessarily. As you draw heat out of the nearby rock, that formation slowly lowers the temperature of the lava, increasing its viscosity and making it less prone to flowing. As the gases contained in the lava cool they also exert considerably less force, down grading the eruption potential. The amount of energy in a cubic mile of molten rock is too large to ignore as a resource to produce reliable energy production. It is the future.

We don’t have to hit magma to produce energy. Better than Solar better than wind better than wave, it is a completely incessant energy source.

    • @buggsy5

      Maybe. Contrary to the claims in the video, magma releases a lot of pollution when the pressure is reduced. How the pollution load from producing such geothermal power would compare to wind/wave/solar energy is unknown to me. There may be some articles somewhere on the subject.
      Of course, it is not necessary to drill into magma to produce geothermal electricity. Water becomes supercritical a temperature far below that of even "slushy" magma - assuming superciticality is desirable.

    VOLCANOLOGY 101
    Lesson: mantle plumes.
    Educator:
    Prof. TheErik249
    Stratovolcanoes consist of anedicite, dacite, and rhyolite magma.
    They're higher in silica.
    This makes them more explosive.
    This typically occurs when the magma chamber has intruded upon a ground water source, or a groundwater source has intruded upon the chamber or the region between the chamber and the cone.
    Water can not be compressed, so it boils and creates pressure that can not be contained by the rock.
    The result is an eruption.
    Iceland doesn't have any stratovolcanoes.
    There is no subduction occurring underneath Iceland.
    Iceland is a basalt formation sitting on the mid-Atlantic divergent plate boundry.
    Magma rises at this point and then moves in opposite directions to the east and to the west.
    But there is another source at work here.
    The Iceland hotspot.
    Magma rising from the outer core lower mantle boundry.
    It is theorized that the Iceland mantle plume is connected to a super plume that also feeds the Jan Mayan archipeligo plume and the Greenland plume.
    A simple test of the magma effusing from any one fissure on Iceland will indicate that the magma is very low in silica and very high in sulfur dioxide and iron.
    Plus, its ambient temperature is approximately 2100°Fahrenheit (1150°C), which is a clear indicator of mafic/basaltic magma.
    ONLY mantle plume hotspots effuse mafic magma that pours like water.
    The cooled magma becomes black and brittle.
    Afterward, long-term, the rock begins turning red as the iron oxidizes.
    Then, it begins crumbling into tiny fragments of reddish brown rubble, eventually becoming sand and then sandstone.
    But that hasn't happened on Iceland.
    WHY NOT???
    Because it sits on a divergent plate boundry that has been very busy for about 210 million years.
    Plus, the hotspot is feeding this region freshly produced mafic magma directly from the core.
    It is theorized that this super plume is the very same plume that caused the Permian-Triassic extinction 251 million years ago and created the Siberian traps large igneous province.
    🤷The more you know🤷

    • @AngryGecko1010

      Hekla and Askja are classified as stratovolcanoes

    • @TheErik249
      @TheErik249 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      @AngryGecko1010 .
      There are no stratovolcanoes on the island of Iceland.
      There is no subduction occurring underneath Iceland.
      Iceland sits Upon A divergent plate boundary.
      It is referred to as the Mid-Atlantic Ridge.
      From the point that both of these plates meet the North American Plate to the north all the way down to the Antarctic plate, these plates are producing oceanic plate and diverging to the East and to the West.
      Mantle plume theory is a new theory in volcanology.
      Geoscience recognizes mantle plume theory, while volcanology is still apprehensive about accepting this Theory.
      Iceland was produced by a mantle plume hotspot.
      All you have to do is take a sample of the magma when it reaches the surface and becomes lava.
      It is low in silica and high in sulfur dioxide.
      It's referred to as mafic magma.
      It rises from the outer core boundary through the lower mantle and the upper mantle and then distributes through a hotspot on the surface of the crust.
      There are 17 known active mantle plume hotspots on Earth currently.
      Hawaii and Iceland being the most active.
      It is confusing when both of the volcanoes that you mention have Ash eruptions.
      What you are witnessing is magma encountering groundwater which has to expand and cannot be contained because water molecules cannot be compressed.
      The highly pressurized water molecules explode violently destroying in vaporizing The Rock.
      At that point is when you will witness an ash column rising out of a vent.

    I remember in the 60's in grade school and we would get My Weekly Reader and we would get excited when the roll of papers would arrive at school. I remember them doing a story on Iceland and tapping into the geothermal energy. One of the main issues was we did not have any material capable of withstanding the high temperatures and corrosive nature of the water as it would eat up the drill bits and piping. A lot of research went into ceramic drills and pipes that would be immune to the corrosive nature of the superheated water. I had several years worth of them stashed away until my brother burned them up out of spite. I contacted them and asked if they (maybe) transposed them onto microfiche (this was LONG before computers and high speed printers) and I would have GLADLY paid for copies. But, alas, no one thought to preserve them in paper form or microfiche. And I can hear the younguns asking "What was a microfiche"? Probably get the same reaction if you talked about "overhead transparency projectors".

    The amateur geologist in me definitely feels that something like this would be a fascinating idea. after all getting rock samples that deep. And maybe being able to do various spectrum analysis and such. At the same time I definitely can see where there would be a great deal of danger. However, the people that are worried about the blowout thing either are not aware of or just not listening to the possibility that this has already happened in things like oil wells, or even geothermal type stuff. Now it is likely that when they finally hit the bottom, they will probably have to do so with all personnel very far away just in case it does pop. But at the same time this actually might be a beneficial thing. Think of it is almost like a pressure relief valve on the side of a water heater. If the pressure in a water heater builds up to a certain point, there’s a valve that will open and allow the pressure to escape. Maybe this hole that they’re going to drill could have the same benefit for this volcano. Yes, it would still mean a form of eruption but maybe just maybe it can relieve the pressure enough so that the main I guess you could say opening doesn’t go up or something. Honestly, something like this if it works may be way for us to not predict when eruptions take place or stop them. But maybe mitigate their damage. After all, we can control mother nature, but we can, kind of work in tandem with her.

      Do you not understand how this all works? If we continue to change our atmosphere, burning fossil fuels, our planet will quit supporting life as we need it long before we will ever burn all the fossil fuels. The damage continues to worsen yet we still are hardly changing our illogical ways. A runaway greenhouse event will destroy civilization.

      You have a valid point but once you have a working steam plant, the electricity can then power electric motors to do further drilling, thereby sidestepping the need for fossil fuels,

      Your expansion figures are wrong.As provided by a book entitled power plant engineers guide; they state that at atmospheric water expands approximately 1700 times it's volume as steam. Even if they could it's a dangerous and dumb idea to consider drilling into magna. They don't need that hot a temperature to produce supercritical steam.

    Seems to me if you drill metal into molten lava, you melt the metal. Releasing pressure with the drill through rock, the lava will use that channel to escape to the surface, melting the rig and a good share of the country on top. Hints in the video say drills Have met lava, but no clue what happened after that. Worth a new Vesuvius?

    • @gregoswald7723
      @gregoswald7723 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Iceland is basaltic lava. It is thinner and flows smoothly and relatively non-violent. Mostly producing smooth lava flows and gasses with very little ash.
      Yellowstone is rhyolite lava. It is thicker and stickier and tends to erupt in the violent eruptions that produce the large ash cloud. They also create the pyroclastic flows, like those that wiped out huge areas around Mt. St. Helens.
      Drilling Iceland would be like opening a bottle of soda. Drilling Yellowstone would be like opening a bottle, that has been sitting in your car on a hot summer day, after it has been shaken.
