Hi granite_crusher

Good to have someone here with some specialist knowledge and an open mind, apologies for the strange person who seems to be deraiing pretty much every thread with pointless noise and insults

Anyway, the thing I'd be very interested in hearing your opinion on is kimberlite pipes? One of the more interesting ideas to come out of EU is that they aren't an explosion of stuff from deep inside the Earth, but are basically an enormous fulgerite from cosmic scale lightning

Does this seem possible to you? might there be some way the chemistry of these things might give us clues to the true story? Personally the thing that makes me think the EU explanation might be nearer the truth is that they are basically located in the middle of land masses along two distinct latitude bands

And if you think this might be the case, fancy going diamond mining? :)

hi bro,im in the camp of mega-fulgurites,with specific intensity and frequency resonance transmuting ions to the varied elements found in them...mauriora...

Hey Granite Crusher,
Not sure if you may be into geological chemistry... I do also feel that stratigraphy, sedimentation, and fossilization are significant areas of direct application to modern industry, particularly the energy industries. The formation "how-tos" of so called fossil fuels, eg. play a significant role in our understanding of fossil fuel recharge-ability and energy futures, and this is a sedimentation/transmutation driven study. Or is it? Is it more a pressure/heat chemistry driven process, as much lab experimentation seems to be bearing out? Silica catalyzed rapid petrification definitely has paradigm changing potential for understanding geologic history. The cementation process is another wonderment. The rapid exothermic chemical processes we see in the mixture and application of modern concrete structures, are these (retroactively) applicable to the cementation that formed the rocks from which modern cement ingredients were derived? Ie. Is there basis for a proposition that the rocks were formed/hardened in a more rapid manner than is standardly attributed to them? I am a retired science and math teacher in the Pacific Northwest. From field studies in Eastern Washington, I brought home large samples of diatomaceous earth and diatomaceus opal from interbasaltic layers where the opal formed as lenses distributed as a layer in the middle of the diatomaceous formation, which is to say there is DE above, below, and surrounding the lenses of opal, obviating they were of the same age and time. The DE can be shown to contain fragments of diatom shells... it appears the in situ formation of the opal lenses was a chemical process independent of long time periods. The up-to-15-m deep DE formations were located between Columbia River basalts that elsewhere may be seen to rest conformably one on the other, another doubt inducer to the standard explanation of long slow accumulation of diatoms in a "shallow sea"... I say "were" as the diatomaceous formations have been largely quarried away by the Celite Corp out of Portland. I was privileged to be able to conduct studies and collect samples while they were still in place. The slag is used as a radioactive waste dump...
Truth extends beyond the border of self-limiting science. Free discourse among opposing viewpoints draws the open-minded away from the darkness of inevitable bias and nearer to the light of universal reality.

That is an extremely interesting transition from sedimentary silica to opal to sedimentary silica again, beneath/between Columbia Basalt.

What to make of it...

Webolife, is there any chance you would share your Columbia Plateau rock collection?
