Brilliant man , fascinating presentation . There is so much happening , with so much unfathomable time involved. Our lives are only a quick little snapshot.

Thank you for sharing your knowledge about this area. I thoroughly enjoyed the way you put this information together. Your sense of humor is awesome. I don't think I can ever look at "All" detergent in the same way as I used to. Your Texan pronunciations are hilarious. What a great teacher 👏.

I appreciate this, folks. An interesting presentation by an engaging speaker. The fact that you included the date at the bottom of the page is also appreciated. I wish more KZreadrs would do this. Again, thanks!

Incredible presentation as always

Thanks!

Thank You Dr. Miller. Hope you find volunteer help in your rescue efforts.🤞 Because we also need you in the field.

Wow. As a tourist/visitor lay person who loves geology and understanding the surrounds - this was amazing.

Incredible lecture! I have now heard it twice, but the geology is so complex and I am so slow, I will need a third listen.

Awesome B-Day present for sure and good luck with it🤞🤙 and sweet jar too ! Happy Birthday 🎉

If you go to St George please make time to visit the Mountain Meadows Massacre site! It is very informative and very well maintained with walking pathways that have many accurate and informative history plaques! It’s a trip you will never forget, well worth the couple hours or so it will take to visit this monument and see everything on display!

If you have identified three (3) Supercontinents, is it possible that there could have been more Supercontinents & therefore older rocks that are yet to be discovered? Where on the planet might be the best place to search for a Supercontinent? Bringing joy to education is awe inspiring. Salute.

WOW very nice

Thanks! Earth stories are the best.

Have only driven through St. George a few times, but that ginormous scarp outside of town is just amazing to look at. Neat to see what's really in it. (They did finally get rid of the neighborhood where that possessed car movie was shot...)

Great talk. It's why the western US is so interesting. We should also thank the dry climate, which makes the landforms visible.

Excellent presentation and material,

Geological processes going on for ~4B years is an "interesting situation"... that little quote made me chuckle. IDK why, but it did... AND yes, indeed it is an interesting situation. TYSVM!

A wealth of information but the wandering pointer made it confusing.

The reason Dixie State University was called “Dixie” is because the St George region is/was once known as “Utah’s Dixie”. Why was this region bestowed with this name? Because the first LDS settlers were sent to St George to grow cotton. It was thought with the warm climate of southern Utah and the water provided by the Virgin and Santa Clara rivers, this portion of Utah could provide a good environment for growing cotton. I lived in St George from 2013 until 2018 and this was common knowledge. The Mormon settlers were from the northern United States and never endorsed slavery. Utah’s Dixie has nothing to do with slavery. The people that sought to change the name of Dixie State were either ignorant or dishonest about this fact. In addition, they were completely inconsiderate of the local community’s history and culture. I moved to San Diego to St George, having been a Californian most of my life. A little respect for local history and culture can go a long way. The Mormon pioneers built a civilization out of the desert. Acknowledging this and respecting this is the least that newcomers can do.

Doesn’t matter. I’m LDS and graduated from Dixie the last year it was Dixie, and I still think the name needed to change. I don’t like the one they picked for it, but considering their mascot used to be the Rebels in a Confederate uniform… yeah. People will swear up and down that it isn’t racist, but not caring that the history of a massive swath of the country outweighs the meaning of “dixie” in a podunk town in the middle of nowhere is a jerk move. Keep calling the region Dixie, whatever, but a school trying to grow and welcome students from across the country and internationally needs to shed a name that’s so strongly associated with hate. You see confederate flags flying in the area, on bumper stickers, and on keychains too so I’m calling BS about “it’s not racist.” The fact that there is a city in the middle of the desert and lovely old worship buildings and orchards is enough monument for me to the pioneers. The name is the least important thing.

They use radiometric dating which looks at two different nuclear isotopes a type of atom, in the rock and how long they’ve decayed for. They decay in a predictable way so they can calculate when the rock formed. Uranium and other radioactive elements have been decaying and losing isotopes since they were first formed in a supernova or neutron star explosion in space. As an example they know that when Uranium loses enough isotopes it becomes Lead instead of Uranium.

I just want to know what my house was built on.

If you would look out the window, at those sharp peaks that made Jackson Hole famous, if you would say those mountains are "millions of years old" (much less "billions"), I'd say you don't know much about Planet Earth. Starting with its famous "reducing atmosphere". Plate tectonics do NOT explain the mega-ranges, the Andes, Himalayas, Rockies/Sierra Madres, Sierra Nevadas, et al. Those ranges were pushed up by other means, and in doing so, the Grand Canyon came to be. The "Great Unconformity" was probably a mystery to Charlie Brown but a few looks around, and one notices great upheaval, twisted rocks, and more than enough signs of something driving a very large chunk of old crust (ONAC), into the fractured craton holding the Colorado Plateau, pinned against the "accretionary plate" running from Siberia to Guatemala. An inland sea lay on top of much of the region, and a waterway traveled from the Arctic Ocean, to the mid-Atlantic region, where the Gulf of Mexico now sits (it had been on the other side of the ocean, off Africa). Something MORE than mere plate tectonics was at work, and not that long ago, because NONE of the great ranges of Earth SHOW "millions of years" of weathering, much less "billions"! There is a very different story that explains all of this, without the caveats, oopsi-doodles, and the "Great Unconformity" to poke a plot hole big enough for a semi truck to drive through! The ROCKS are old, made back when Earth was in the rock production phase. Their current location, appearance, and conditions, are far more modern than these OLD theories allow for. I bet there isn't a geologist alive who would recognize Earth of only ONE million years ago, instead of the plural version they insist on.

From your description of the area it appears to have many geologic similarities as where you could look for gold. Or am I way off.????

Idaho and Nevada are much better locations for gold prospecting. The biggest placer gold deposit in Utah is the huge Bingham copper mine so it’s probably better to focus on Idaho or Nevada, or even Montana if you are into gold prospecting.

There is nuclear fission underground then it was like inverted sunspots that created Hawaiia and Yellowstone.?

I don’t think so it’s just where mantle melts the crust and is thinner that allows a hotspot to form. It’s also because the ocean crust gets recycled by thrust faults and when a plate is pushed under a different continental plate it creates a cold spot. So the magma usually comes out in a different thinner area that doesn’t have a cold spot under the continent. The hot spots actually stay in the same spots and the continent or ocean is moving across the same spot. Like the Yellowstone hotspot moved from Oregon, to Nevada, to Idaho, before it erupted in Wyoming. So the North American plate is moving west over the hotspot making the hotspot seem like it’s moving east.
