GeoForge, if you smell garlic, that's arsenic. Bad stuff to deal with. I assume you have taken several mineralized rock samples for analysis. Looks promising. By the way, if you ever come across a mine or cave in this area, do not enter it unless you have an oxygen sensor, a companion who knows resuscitation, and a pony tank of oxygen (with a regulator). Those venting gasses are mainly carbon dioxide and water vapor. Also, if you want a quick way to differentiate feldspar from quartz, use your pocket knife. Quartz is tougher than steel and won't scratch, feldspar is softer and will scratch. Keep up the good work, you're doing well.
Please allow a little more time for my (old) eyes to focus on the rocks before moving to the next ones. Other than that I really enjoy your observations.
Please keep making these interesting videos. I find myself paying close attention to every detail. Saying that brings up a concern. Be careful how much footage you show of the surrounding area and where this is if you don't want unwanted visitors. There are those who are deceptively nice. Keep up the good work and stay safe!!
Really interesting - well done, and thanks for sharing. Process is exciting when viewed in nature, as opposed to being beaten over the head with a dry textbook. Thanks for taking us there.
I think these type of Geo thermal vents are what has fueled the recent wildfires in California. Drought low humidity, and crazy winds. Explosions, trees and poles burning from the inside out. Was wondering what you thought about this?
I don't really know but, I don't think geothermal vents are what is fueling wildfires in California. California does have active geothermal activity along with volcanics but, I don't think they cause wildfires. Thermal activity is hot but it also usually contains lots of water vapor which should prevent anything near them from catching fire. Extremely high temperature geothermals that shoot steam could potentially cause a flame but due to the hot temperatures, nothing really grows around them and once the steam cools, it turns to vapor. So the only way I could see geothermal activity starting a fire is if it is releasing dry heat and gases with no water vapor/steam.
You can send it to my email which you can find on my channel page under the about section or you could upload it to youtube and I can look at it there.
I wish I could send a picture I have a piece of cord that is amazing has everything you're talking about everything colder so dense 16 by 10 by 8 60 lb some more like its mollted together quartz pink looking like meat pyrite clusters clear crystal clear like all kinds of stuff going on in it could you tell me what is don't myths of the Integrity of it is worth more the way it is or go fund that Jewel inside I ain't going to cut it open but I'll send you a picture of it if I can I don't know how
Son... you did a good job regurgitating the said curriculum. This is a dead reptile albiat a big one. The red is from the veins of the creature. Iron in the blood turns to gold under rapid burial conditions creating mass pressure... everything was alive, and the gases are the exact same affect with humans or a dead beached whale... good day sir!
Seems like it. I recently tested out the Gold Bug 2 at this location and the results seem very promising. I need to build a good crusher or buy one so I can start processing samples.
I was glad to see your video today. I forgot to sub when I saw your video befor. It would be nice to take a sm. recycling sluice up there and run the material in front of that spot you got your sample from. It looks like all that weathered off and collected there. Thanks for the video. I remembered to subthis time.

Richard sounds like he's giving great advice. Thanks Richard
Awesome brotha! Damn you winter 😅

Thanks for the tip. Glad you enjoyed it.
If your going to show us something stop moving the camera.
4 minutes in, i am getting motion sickness, slow that cam movement a bit, maybe?
Hornblende and Augite
This is my first time visiting. I like how you explain the function of what’s going on with the earth !
Nice
With you moving the camera around so much when you talk I feel like I'm watch Michael Fox. Good info though.
Yea I realize that, will be working on fixing that habit of mine haha. Glad you liked the video
I agree.
You are so fast about camera. I mean when u take video pls slowly

What state are you in looks like Oregon almost

Love your channel.very informative.
Nice work

Cool video lots of minerals there, thanks.
Glad you enjoyed it.

NICE STUFF

i have rock like that
Interesting stuff. Subbed. ;)
Glad you liked it. Thanks
What's the Geo Coordinates?
There is gold all over!!!
Thanks

You need to expand your vocabulary.
