I guess they ignored the “if you have permission” part of the video. People have such disrespect for private land.

Any time You Tubers promote and talk about places like this is bound to be seen by these idiots.

1. Tells the world where a possible diamond mine is. 2. Evades responsibility for doing this.

​@LeydenAigg how to say you never take responsibility without saying you never take responsibility.

industrial grade :)

The real gems are the friends we dig up along the way

The land and how and why it formed the way it did has always fascinated me. And the interesting information you bring up is always amazing and mind boggling to me. Thanks for even another great episode!

Well worded. I vibe with that hard.

@@ronfullerton3162 I’m glad that you enjoyed this episode. :)

Agate😊

So true.

Diamonds are great for tools to cut real gems.

my Daughters name is Amber 🥰

Oh yeah!!! And the market is full of them. I love Citrine! Carnelian, even altered quartz can have its beauty. I never knew I could afford Rubies until I looked around!!! ❤️

Also grew up in AZ and lived in and around Flagstaff/Sedona and never knew about it. Great clip!

typical most don't have the skills for independent research. there are doers, and lazy followers #foodshortage

@@dr.floridaman4805 who are you ranting about?

Same. Phx born, raised and still residing. Never knew this existed here xD

Maybe Alan Palmer of YT channel "The Farm on Route 66" will take us video rock hounding one day . 😊

Can you do pico de orizaba?

Could you make a video about Meteora ? I think it a very interesting geological oddity.

Can diamonds be brought to the surface and not be in a kimberlite deposits? Small diamonds were found in the stream bed near Ramona, California yet no kimberlite deposits are nearby. The source of the creek is near the gold mines in Julian, Ca.

Plz do pico de orizaba

@@oscarmedina1303 placer diamonds?

Coming from Scotland UK ,I love the area around Page ,the geology, the Navajo culture , Glen canyon ,lake Powell ,beautiful scenery! If I could live there I would !

This geologist sometimes wonders if they're not just making some of this 5HIT up. Do they truly know the speed of the magma? Do they really know the age of the rocks? Reminds me of a guy that told me they use carbon dating on the rocks. Then he insulted me and called me stupid. When I told him carbon dating only works on organic and living material, he shifted his ignorance by saying, "well they know how old the rocks are. Maybe it's a special kind of carbon dating?" Would it do any good to explain the 3 kinds of rocks in the rock cycle?

@@kevindouglas8768 Carbon dating also only works for relatively recent stuff. Basically human history timeframe. Not far enough back to be all that relevant for geology. Although radioactive elements can be used for dating rock formations, assuming any are present in the area.

With the knowledge I've gathered I wonder in parallel alot of things. Like when crude oil is boiled, it separates up a pipe into different components. Kerosene, diesels, gasses of various levels and qualities. I thought that when the magma vents were open to air exchange, like steam, they began to collect elements growing ,pressuring and separating everything like gold ,silver ,diamonds. Nice to learn the diamonds were deep and flowed up. Like all the elements the key player is water and pressure and aa place to release was my compression. So I appreciate epiphanies

A lot of land in the New Madrid area dropped in elevation to the point where there are swamps even today where none existed before. Some of the backflow water remained in these areas. But your assumption that some entered and remained underground in new crevasses and caves also may be true. In either case once these areas were full the water reversed back to normal flow in a surge much like a tide reversing.

@@xenon54 Thank you so much! Do you know anything about the salinity of these swamps, or even better, their salinity changes over time? Do you know and good resources on the topic?

@@garbleduser I don't know if Gulf of Mexico waters made it that far north. The Mississippi River south of the New Madrid fault has a vast volume that could more than able fill in the New Madrid quake deformations. But if not, the natural fresh water dispersion in a short amount of time would have "washed away" the salts. What salt water that may have entered the area wasn't left isolated to dry up and leave salt deposits like those found in the Mediterranean basin. The Mediterranean never had the option for fresh water to flush out its salts. Instead it dried up several times in episodes (known as the Messinian Salinity Crisis) for previous millions of years. These drying up periods caused vast salt deposits to accumulate. These deposit layers are with us to this day. But who knows. Perhaps a exploratory drill site in the New Madrid fault area may find saline water that was trapped and isolated from the Gulf of Mexico during the quakes of 1811-1812.

excellent question

I would say, yes, some caves were filled with Missippi mud. They may create sinkholes if not already but in the future.

I live in Az, but you should try exploring southern Utah!!! Incredible.

That’s Yamsay Mountain. It’s a shield volcano and the circular thing north of the main mountain looks like a combination of a lava flow and cinder cone activity. I can see 2 cinder cones in the circular area.

There are TONS of obscure, ancient (although still Cenozoic) calderas around eastern Oregon. An old rockhound showed me one of 'em on a map, you'd never know it was there otherwise. Not sure what caused all of that and they always seem to be rather forgotten about. Might be related to the Columbia Flood Basalts, as those had an effect on northeastern Oregon and were markedly different than the main bit over in Washington. Either way I'm almost certain the high volumes of caldera volcanism there are responsible for the unusually high concentrations of thundereggs in the region. Shame that nobody ever bothers with them though.

Wishbi had answer but after watching nick zenter an guessing roll back sucks deep mantle in to void above lower plate and moisture from lower plate catalyzed mantle into magma that then quickly burned its way through contental plate with out picking up much silica from remelt crust

I personally think the "flat subduction" idea is bunk. What makes more sense to me is the idea that large land masses tend to insulate the magma underneath them, and eventually the heat just starts melting the crust. Consider the break up of Pangea, and the Atlantic ridge (the rift). I think the Rockies had the potential to be a continental rift, but either could not get hot enough, or the stresses on the NA plate changed. The Rockies did experience uplift followed by spreading after all, and Karen Sigloch has imaged the subducted plates sinking in the mantle.

in your opinion, how did the rockies got uplifted and how do you explain folds with west-east compression found in western US?

Mantle plumes

This looks like an electrical discharge event caused these features. Because we haven’t captured one in the history books and because of how much it would unravel of what we’re teaching in mainstream science, it’s not even considered and investigated. It can easily explain some of the features and issues people are recognising here. It even includes the transmutation of elements, I.e. the creation of different elements and compounds that were not previous present. We think we’re so smart now that we can’t be repeating mistakes of the geocentric past. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/fsqWdaqivNa7Zas.html

Same with my husband, and he lived Arizona too. We live in York PA now and our house is full of amazing treasures he found there!

how do you "bing" a channel ???

Back in the 1980s, I did magnetic and gravity work on Pacaya. It's beautiful there!

@@craiglachman1379 that's incredible! I'd love to hear more about it

@@rhuephus think “binge” instead…

This is correct. Also, we wouldn’t really be able to order and carry out an evacuation in that short timespan. Kimberlite eruptions would be deadly and are always plinian

What is last word you used geohub " pinolan "

Plinian

The flood basalts of eastern WA are massive. Burried nearly half the state.

@@KS-hj6xn Not really connected to kimberlites at least not directly but yeah flood basalt eruptions aren't called that for nothing. And in reality the Columbia river flood basalts are relatively tiny compared to typical flood basalts This oddity probably is due to the Columbia river flood basalts originating not from the main plume head but from material trapped beneath the former crust of the underlying Farallon plate and piling up beneath the magmatically uplifted slab for well over 20 million years before it finally burst through. The resulting tear in the Farallon slab is still visible with seismic tomography giving weight to this hypothesis or something similar

but it was just a tree...

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am a novice science hobby person Pa NJ border. Going to visit the Ben Franklin geo science center in NJ maybe this week. I don't envy those folks being a geologist here. 3000 variations of 1 type is fibbing. I need a Spectro, all software. This old fashioned way needs to tech up. And keep some people quiet.

I viewed a video on the Bay of Islands Ophiolite exposed in Gros Morne National Park yesterday that was well done in terms of the photography, but the geology was wrong on several points. The dominant mantle rock is peridotite and peridotites contain more much magnesium than iron as a rule. Crustal igneous and metamorphic rocks contain more iron than magnesium. The major error in the Tablelands video is that there over twenty-five places on Earth where the oceanic mantle is exposed. I listed the mantle exposures below, but I did not include all of the many ophiolites in Tibet and China and I did not did not distinguish between the two ophiolites in the Coast Range in California. To say that the mantle exposure in the Gros Morne National Park is the only place on Earth where anyone can "walk on the Earth's mantle" is a fundamental error. Nineteen of the exposed mantle sections or ophiolites are: 1) Coast Range, California, USA, 2) Ultramafic rock sections near Baltimore, Maryland, USA, 3) Central Andes, Argentina, 4) Bay of Islands, Gros Morne National Park, Newfoundland, 5) Lizard Complex, Cornwall, Great Britain, 6) Northern Apennine, Italy, 7) Troodos, Cyprus, 7) Central Eastern Desert, Egypt, 8) Semail, Oman and United Arab Emirates, 9) Naga Hills and Andaman, India, 10) Kohistan Arc, Pakistan, 11) Dangqiong, Tibet, 12) Zhongcang, Tibet, 13) Dongwanzi, China, 14) Macquarie Island, Tasmania, Australia, 15) Yakuno, Japan, 16) Horokanai, Japan, 17) Poroshiri, Japan, 18) Zambales, Luzon, Philippines, and 19) Dun Mountain, South Island, New Zealand.

@@alexriter278 Interesting comments. They are appreciated. I'm aware (though have not personally seen) what have been described as ophiolites as part of the exotic terranes of the Pacific Northwest and extending into SW British Columbia. Part of the "Baja BC" area first described in the early 70's if you are familiar with that. Odd thing, since I retired in 2014, I'm enjoying geology more than ever though it isn't nearly as profitable as "back in the day". Thanks again for the information.

@@alexriter278 Wow you sure know what your talking about. I live along pa nj border in a complex zone not discussed much. I find plenty of many desirable specimens then some.

You never heard of volcano eruptions in Arizona because it's not from any volcano, they are just filling the void with lies that are easily believed. Anytime academia diverts from the truth, it's always replaced with "volcano" . The truth is, people can't handle the truth about this planet before you and I, you are not allowed to know the truth. I don't want to tell you about the truth because you are not ready for it, it'll change your entire perspective of the world. Mind blowing at least

You like it when they tell you lies, the truth is , they are not telling you the truth but you don't know anything different so you accept it as truth. Most can't handle the truth Academia has lied about our past to keep things in working order for the controllers to stay in control of humanity. The original inhibitor of this world will blow your mind and make you see that world very different from your perspective now. The truth hurts to accept

I cannot seem to locate the feature you are referring to. Instead I get results for a steakhouse

Well done, fries instead of baked, a icy corona

I’m glad that you enjoyed it! This kimberlite is one of the lesser known geologic oddities in the state

Not ready made diam9 or cristal in a molten format only the diamond forming atoms came up forming diamonds as the magma cooled of slowly, only then the atoms can arrange themselves to forming diamonds 💎

@@josemeza7128 if diamonds formed closer to the surface (in cooling magma) the pressure wouldn't be sufficient and you'd just get graphite.

@@josemeza7128 pressure makes diamonds, no pressure no diamonds

Wasn't it two women geologists that discovered that kimberlite pipe, containing gem-quality diamonds? The actual pipe was narrowed-down as being under a lake - this by core samples drilled from a barge. A dike was built across the lake and half the lake was drained and then an open-pit mine was started. There is a book out about that find - a fascinating story.

I'm an exploration geophysicist I work in airborne geophysical surveys and have done so for over 20 years, I've worked on several kimberlite projects and on one of them, for the world's biggest and most well known diamond mining company, the chief geophysicist for the company told me that approximately 1 in 100 kimberlites is diamondiferous, and then approximately 1 in 100 diamondiferous kimberlites will eventually prove to be economically viable and worth mining, he actually said to me, "its a numbers game, you have to get through the 9,999 duds to get to the winner". Diamond/kimberlite exploration geoscientists are a strange breed it's like an obsession, personally I don't really enjoy being involved with kimberlite projects.

@@ats-3693 there's diamonds here in Josephine county oregon. And nobody's exploring it for diamonds. I know where a lot of the outcroppings are but they're hard to get to. I know because of the one I explored and other locations showing a similar geological formations. That's the first time I heard that it takes 9 8 duds. Someone who's discovered multiple locations of diamonds who is a geologist States it's about 1 in 100. So who should I believe? In my area I think it's more like three and 100 or better because of the diamonds found in the rivers. Different Rivers or streams. But anyway I'm not a geologist I'm just going by the things I've learned over the last 20 years as an armchair prospector. I've actually gotten out in the field and discovered some of these things on my own before I even knew what they were. I did research and more research until I got answers. One location had square diamonds which I understand are quite rare. Unfortunately my so-called mining partner at that time told me there was no such thing as diamonds in the area and went back and took it all that was easily accessible. Afterwards I did more research and discovered that diamonds can be square, and I went back to that site to find it missing. Other indicators told me it was him. But then I located kimberlite pipes nearby. What I had originally discovered was an envelope or a small vein of volcanic material containing diamonds and peridot stones. Why you're bored or don't like the subject, is beyond me, but to me every geologist should be able to go out and find millions of dollars worth of precious minerals or gemstones and be wealthy the rest of their lives. Instead of just going out and getting jobs and being bored with it. But what do I know LOL

@@1topskyrocket I just get no satisfaction from being involved with diamond exploration and mining companies, they serve no purpose other than to make a small group of individuals extremely wealthy by controlling the supply of little stones that have no purpose or value other than being trinkets. Mining operations put a huge strain on the environment and use massive amounts of other resources, in my opinion large scale mining should only be done to recover resources that are needed by all of us. I'm a lucky person I guess I absolutely love the work that I do, I worked in the field traveling the world for many years I've seen the most amazing and awful places you can imagine, I work for myself from home as a consultant I process geophysical data and oversee projects all over the world for various survey companies, right now as I write this I'm processing airborne electromagnetic survey data from a project in Morocco I'm overseeing, and an airborne magnetic survey in Sudan. I'm also part of a group of guys who have been developing drone geophysical survey systems for the last few years we are now in production after lots of R&D and hard work, we pull in about $50k for a weeks survey work with our drone system.....

@@ats-3693 that sounds interesting about the magnetic survey process. I wish I could get something like done in the area I'm working. But I don't want to tell where it is lol. I'll figure it out on my own with my backpack cord roller hopefully by the end of the summer. I also figured out how to figure figure where caverns are. I've been accumulating all these different things about different locations and what they contain until I could afford to buy a backpack core driller sampler. Now that I have it I need to put together a way to get there without causing a fire hazard. There was one guy I met here in town but I guess they went out of business, they were going to send me little packets that you hang inside of the core drilling hole. And that would give them ideas whether or not there was precious oil in the ground I believe that's what they said. I would have loved to have done that with this now but they're closed down I guess. I know where shale oil is here without a doubt. I'm going to be looking for unnecessary precious minerals like gold silver platinum and copper over the summer time using the information I learned from a book written in the 1500s about mining. It talks about it for one sentence how the trees are indicators of veins below. But it doesn't say what kind of metals LOL so I'll be finding that out for my own personal cash of knowledge. If it turns out to be true I'll be one of the most knowledgeable people about reading the trees and bushes and plants showing me where precious minerals are. I'm doing three things this summer, I'm going to see if I'm right about the caverns, and I'm going to see if I'm right about the kimberlite pipes close to where I originally discovered diamonds, and I'm going to find out if the trees are telling the truth. It should be an eventful summer. I'm just a junior prospector and I do it for a hobby at this point. But I'm kind of set up ready to go if I find some good hard Rock sources. I have a 5:10 per hour crusher and Hammer Mill, and I'm going to build my own impact mail to reduce it down to 100 -. Then I'm just going to run it through a sluice box to recover the heavy metals. Eventually I'll get a Shaker table.

@@1topskyrocket you can rent a handheld magnetometer and walk your own ground magnetic survey, kimberlites and diamonds are tricky with mag surveys though, to contain diamonds the kimberlite must pop up and cool very quickly so the diamonds are preserved, but this also means the magnetic domains in the kimberlite don't get a chance to align with the earths magnetic field, the rock freezes with the magnetic domains randomly orientated their net magnetic field = zero and the rock also has a low magnetic susceptibility and won't get a second hand induced magnetism from the earths field, and if the kimberlite came up and cooled very slowly it would end up with a strong magnetic signature that can be imaged in a mag survey but it has no diamonds because they were able to revert to graphite in the slowly cooling kimberlite magma

The fire is in the San Francisco Peaks area of Arizona. The Tunnel fire started on the north side of the Peaks but spread north and east, eventually affecting Sunset Crater to the east. If anybody knows why it is named "Tunnel Fire" I haven't heard it.

Listen to what you are saying, a fire can destroy something that was created by supposedly volcano that is thousands of time hotter than fire ??? Amazing You must not believe that a volcano ever existed in that area, where is the volcano now ??? Volcanoes don't just disappear, just like the Pyramids, they never disappeared. Please, find the Volcanoes in Arizona and if you can't then you are believing what ever you are told and that is miserable way of gaining knowledge. Academia and science are one and the same, they can't tell you the truth about this planet or they would be fired. They don't believe in God but you believe everything that they say, Whhyyyy ???

@@NOTTHASAME No, that is not what I was saying.

The graphic illustration is not accurate. Kimberlites form at much greater depths so they would have to blast through the subduction plate.

Oh you know better than everyone else huh? You have the secret knowledge? What is being discussed here is well understood and is not particularly complicated, and it can't happen another way. You are a deluded oddball.

You pointed out some obvious errors.
