You will continue to have limited access to information from the CCP (at least the little they will admit to) as long as you kiss them so softly. I appreciate the emphasis on science, but your political blindness screams loudly.... Or maybe you know, and you just needed their money. Thanks for the Video, have a nice day.

Why would it? That would require delete me to contact the data brokers again to grant them permission to use and sell your info again, and that just doesn’t make any sense from a business perspective.
      From what I see, there’s no harm in subscribing for a month, getting things cleaned up and you info deleted from everywhere, and then unsubscribing for the next year or so.

    As a 43 year oil geologist, I can tell you that wells this deep could possibly only make economic sense for hydrotheral energy. There is no present technology that could economically extract minerals. Plus, the challenges to drill wells at that depth/heat horizontally are beyond our abilities, now and for the far future.

      Do you agree that oil is not a " fossil" fuel, but created from magma, and that new oil is created much faster than we are told, but this process varies a lot from area to area. It was old John D Rockefeller who came up with the idea of calling oil "fossil" in order to drive up prices when people thought there could be scarcity of oil in future. Oil drilled and found far deeper than "fossil" sediments...

    The reason China is the leader in so many of these markets is because they don't conserve. They strip, destory, and contaminate the areas where they mine all these metals. Not to mention they pay their workers very little compared to what the Chinese government gets from selling these metals. China can't keep this pace as they are actually spending way more then they are making. And are losing trading partners. The reason other Countries aren't able to compete is due to precautions and laws that help to maintain their enviroments. When China runs out and over contaminates their Country. Other Governments will still be mining while not destorying their enviroments.

    The energy beam drilling is a pipe dream. They have been trying to sell that for 20+ years and it has gone no where.
    As you drill deeper, the head pressure of the mud is a bit self regulating. Gravity pulls down on everything. The pumps are there to control the flow rate rather than pressure. Yes, pressure is created, but it's no the goal. If the mud's flow rate drops too low, the spoils will drop ou of suspension and jam up the hole. The deeper you go, the higher this flow rate needs to be.

      Retired offshore oilfield driller here. The required flow rate of your drilling fluid is calculated by the engineers and is dependent on the size of the hole section you are drilling, and the anticipated downhole geology. This is done by looking at other wells in the area and other seismic data from surveys. The weight and viscosity of the drilling mud is based off this geological information. You need to have sufficient hydrostatic pressure to counter balance the hydrocarbons you anticipate to hit otherwise you will have a blowout. Yes the drilling fluid removes cuttings from the hole, but it has several jobs - the main one being the it’s your main well control method.

      @@izzzzzz6 We knows it not hollow thanks to the study of seismic waves passing through the earths core. When an earthquake goes off there are 2 waves that are produced, the primary wave and the secondary waves, the primary wave can pass through both liquid and solid material. Secondary waves cannot pass through a liquid. We know the outer core is molten(liquid) because secondary waves cannot pass through it, but primary waves do, and we also know the core is solid because primary waves speed up as they travel through denser material. Because of this we're able to measure and predict when a primary wave will arrive on the other side of the planet based on where it originated from. We know the speed of the shockwave in all of these mediums (Solid, liquid, gas) and their respective densities, and we also know the diameter or the earth, making it quite easy to calculate.
      If the core were hollow the primary wave would slow down dramatically as pressure waves travel much much slower in air than they do in a liquid and dramatically less so than in a solid. If the core were a vacuum it wouldn't propagate at all leaving a giant shadow on the far side of the core where no wave would be detected.
      So if the earth were hollow and we took our measurements assuming it was solid, we would end up with a speed, an elapsed time of propagation and a diameter of earth that wouldn't line up, due to the slow down in the gas. On paper it would come across as say, the earth would need to be 13,000 miles in diameter instead of 7900 miles that it is, based on the time it took the shockwave to arrive. Therefore we know the core must be far denser than air and thus, not hollow.

At least on the surface, their strategy of eventually using existing coal fired plants to deliver the massive energy needed to run their gyrotron drills heads directly at or near the plant, and then transistion that plant from coal to geothermal steam seems almost too good tot be true. Early going and a ton of unknowns for sure. But according to the Journal of Petroleum Technology, this year their goal is a 100 inch deep x 1 inch hole which would be 10x improvement over their best from last year. If they can scale anywhere near that rate annually, in 3-4 years they would be to depths far deeper than needed. Pretty exciting. Thanks for all you do!

    While the Quaise approach can go deeper and faster, it turns the walls into glass and all you get in the end in a very long glass lined hole with no discoveries.

    If you use a maser to vaporize rock, that mass still has to rise up and exit the hole. And it has to get out of the way of the beam for the beam to hit the rock. You could pipe air down to the bottom of the hole and support the "maser drill bit". This reminds me of "space elevators"
    And analyzing the rising vapor isn't going to very useful. The maser will destroy tons of information (thermodynamics).
    And that means less support mass, but you still have tons of rock vapor to lift up miles. And then that rock vapor is going to go everywhere. Should we just ignore it? Can breathing that vapor be dangerous? (Yep)
    If you really want to explore time - go to the Grand Canyon. The oldest rock at the bottom of the canyon is in the Elves Chasm Gneiss. It's over 1.8 billion yrs old. > 145 million yrs. And the Grand Canyon is much longer than the depth China is aiming at. I.e., lots of data. Very few holes. No pollution.
    If this was entirely for science, they wouldn't use the drill bits shown in your video. They'd use coring bits. Conventional bits turn structures into mud. Not that mud is useless, but with structures you can radio carbon date bits and pieces of the sample to see how homogeneous the sample is make sense of it. Why? because drilling that deep you'll very likely cross igneous rock and basalt. Which can the layers come out out of order. But with enough holes you get more data... maybe some brilliant geologists can sort it all out?
    And anyway, the Grand Canyon is pretty much carved from sedimentary rock. So the strata pretty much conform to a linear history. If you drill a million holes you'll get a much better picture of the geohistory than what you'll find in the Grand Canyon.
    But, it is an interesting exploration. It has my attention. I hope that this engineering journey is open sourced.

Ice is able to preserve DNA for potentially millions of years mostly due to the cold, but also because it can be sealed away in the structure of the ice. Drilling into crust will increase the temperature the deeper you go until the point where the molecules that make up DNA will break up. You might have seen some research about extremophile archeabacteria that can live surprisingly deep, or maybe fossils they found bore holes or ice holes, but i don't think there's anything they could find DNA wise in a super deep bore hole

Hopefully they will actually pay the people like GA Drilling or your mentioned MIT spinoff Quaise Energy instead of just ripping off their technology. China often attempts things first because the projects are government funded as well as getting the fast path by skipping any of the red tape experienced by companies in other countries. The biggest joy for them seems when the CCP claims the technology as their own.

    We know more about Mars and the moon than we know about what's under the earths crust is a silly silly sentence. Have we done much exploring under Mars' crust? 😂😂

    Unfortunately, Nature Journals are becoming more and more politicized. Saying you’re getting published in them no longer equates to doing good or worthwhile research. It’s a crying shame too.

    Nice clickbait, this doesn't even come close to the kola superdeep borehole.

    I remember the way most people thought about the Chinese, “ they can’t come up with invention and they can only copy what others invent “ .
    That statement has proved to be the biggest mistake ever because not assessing your competition in depth will result in huge shocks and sometimes I Don’t understand why those think tanks are actually getting paid because they keep making huge mistakes and embarrassing themselves and causing confusion and conflicts .

      This video proves that statement.
      The Chinese couldn't come up "with invention", so they decided to do exactly what the USA and USSR did half a century ago, only to reach the same conclusions.
      I also found it absolutely hilarious when he said that he thought that humans had extracted samples of the core... it really shows that he has absolutely no idea of what he's talking about...

    There's also the fact that the u.s. has rare earth metals available to mine but its costly to do.

    Rare earth minerals are only rare when found in high concentration. In low concentration these minerals are quite common and not worth the cost of retrieving.
