Having sat through hundreds of presentations in a 40 year academic & professional career, I have to say that this might be the best introductory presentation of a massive, complex subject that I have ever seen. Simply brilliant.
This will cause me not to go back to beer. Thank you for the clarity in the basics. I am a 61-year old tenderfoot hardrock mine owner in Randsburg, Ca. crushing rock.
I just made the previous comment (question) and forgot to thank you for the great presentations. Thank you for all the hard work and time you put into these videos. They are very well thought out.
Brilliant ThankYou . Will pass on. Looks as though no one either knows about the excellent resource You provide or they are not sharing !! Merci. Stephen australia
Brilliant videos, thanks! I could use informations on ranking the kind of mine projects that are normally investable, I mean what would you REALLY like to see, what is just okay, and perhaps what you usually should stay far away from:)
06:00 How do we know what the core is made of and in what composition if we've never drilled into more than a small percentage of the crust? 12:32 How is this speed and direction of motion of movement of tectonic plates measured?
we do seismic and geophysical studies...those that he mentioned as indirect methods. The speed and direction of movement of tectonic plates is probably measured by satellite data analysis but I'm not absolutely certain how:') there are however ways like apparent polar wandering path determination that can give you the trajectory of tectonic plates by studying paleomagnetic data. Also if we have a constant source of upwelling magma which is responsible for plume magmatism that generates recurrent volcanoes on a plate moving over it, we can measure the distance between two adjacent volcanoes and divide it by the time interval between the formation of the two volcanoes. This will give us the speed of plate movement....as in case of Hawaiian islands. Hope this helps!

Thank you for the kind comment. I'm sure the talk is a bit out of date now, as it was put together 10-15 years ago.

This series is exactly what I've been looking for, thank you!
Same the time we live in is amazing

Excellent introductory lecture. Explained so simply. Thank you!
thank you for your work brother. Studying for my PG and this will help.
Simple and easily understandable talk. I really like it.
What a valuable tool . Thanks to Doc Jones for recommending
This is fantastic. Thank you Sprott and Mr. Jackson.
So interesting and informative video with very understandable example for analogy.
Thank you for putting together this informative series!
Great series! Thank you professor!
Geology over a beer had me hooked! Great video!!
Thank you for your good presentation, this is really good for a geologist
Great content. Thank you for sharing!!

Well explained thanx I will nail my project kkkkkkkk
Why is the video unlisted? I found it only because TH-cam recommended it in the main page.
I'm Highly appreciated,

great video series
Thank you so much sir.
Great video; thanks for posting. Nevada is not pronounced with "odd" in the middle.
Lol
no, I think he got it right. There's definitely some odd in the middle here. 😂

Good work!
I saw your reply to a previous comment.
Is it the science that is a bit out of date or just the newly discovered deposits?
These talks were put together 10-15 years ago, so the discoveries have moved on since then.
Do you offer any classes? Or would you be open to answering just a few questions I have?
Excellent!!!!!
