Where do metals come from? How do they enable the energy transition? Dr Taija Torvela of the University of Leeds explores these questions in this documentary-style channel, discussing what is the role of Earth resources, particularly metals, in our world today. The videos range from describing sources and uses of individual metals and elements, to specific ore deposit types, to investigating what metals and other resources are required in the energy transition - and beyond. The short videos on this channel provide a jargon-free, accessible resource to everyone from the general public, to schools and universities: to anyone who is interested in learning about Earth resources and their crucial role in the modern society.

Love it
How cool is this channel? 10 out of 10 cool. Love stuff like this. So much interesting and useful info. Subscribed.
Thank you so much; it is great as always.
Subscribed 😃
Enjoying your content. Appreciated sound quality improvements, thanks!
I dont think so.
Thank you for explaining placer deposits,great video
Thanks Dr.
Good job Taija. Congrats
I like placer deposits !
Great Video Thanks
Than you very much 👏👏👏
My grandparents lived in Placerville, California. Placer mining for gold was a big thing in the Sierra Nevada foothills in the 19th century to the extent that some of the first environmental laws in the USA were enacted because of the massive silt runoff from the mining operations which were starting to fill in the Siusun and San Francisco Bays.
Thanks ! knowledge gooooood
The unfortunate Dutch Afrikaner's - trying to rid themselves of the British and their commercial allies - went on their Great Trek to find autonomy and going North landed in that region with Witwatersrand - of course that meant Diamonds and Gold which meant the Dutch would never be free - as is the case today - $$$ does not equal freedom
Thank you thank you for being you. It is so enjoyable to hear your balance of all that lays before our feet. Laughter makes us live longer and humour in all cases. Regards Alan down under very much and admire.
It’s wonderful to see a fairly niche topic like economic geology getting some time in the spotlight of such clear presentations. Well done!
I misread the title and was expecting something about Gourmet Allice,whoever she might be!
NEW subscriber I like your format informative thank you ALL stay safe "Always looking for the pot of gold, but only find fool's gold, or jest a fool"
Excellent. Thank you!
Love your channel. Keep up the good work.
Brilliant, thanks.
Very good, thanks.
I enjoy your clear precise presentations.
An explanation on the entire topic - which I desired - and got here. With thanks.
Thank you. I love your videos - they make so much sense of something that's always been a bit opaque to me. I didnt even know how to pronounce 'placer' until now!
Another excellent video.
I think your great and have a beautiful mind. Good work. I appreciate your passion. These minerials are the base of life and much more. You are doing a good job.Much appreciated.
Great video - I worked in Papua New Guinea in 1971 looking for porphyry deposits ... wish I had your video then ! Wandering around in the jungle not quiet sure what I was lookng for !
Glad it was helpful! :)
Tell me more about ur journey please
*They can now mine 30,000 tons per year of Nickle, Cobalt and Nickle from nodules on the ocean floor over 15,000 feet deep and the environmentalists are having a HEART ATTACK! Again! A good law would be to ban all of these protestors from owning a cell phone, computer and electric car so they will not end up being hypocrites for buying these metals.* What does a hypocrite mean? 1. : A person whose actions contradict their stated beliefs or feelings.
The point is that we have plenty of reserves on land, there is no need for deep sea mining which is probably environmentally much more harmful and difficult/impossible to regulate, than modern responsibly conducted mining on land.
@@ourmetallicearth *You have ZERO proof its more harmful!*
And you have zero proof that is it not. Nobody knows what the real impact would be compared to responsible onshore mining, although I would be very surprised if responsible onshore mining would not have a much smaller impact. Either way, we should not do deep sea mining unless we know the full picture and can ascertain it is not more harmful.
hocam agzına saglık harikasın.çok teşekür ederim
Thank you for this wonderful information.
Thank you so much for this. As a former steel fabricator (welder.fitter) metallurgy is a fascinating subject for me.
Glad you enjoyed it! 😊
Good to know we won't be running out.
searched "Mining giant joins forces with US government to 'revolutionize' steel production",and this sh;t comes up?!?...
Eventually we're going to have to recover most elements from things like sea water and waste products where they might be in very low parts per billion concentration, how do you sort out elements when you get to that situation?
When will Manganese quit playing? Come up to the surface, and just nodule.
We used it in our crusher’s jaws and high impact parts, though thing.
Manganese cause trichome production in cannabis...Want more frost add more manganese...Oil production crops see a oil produtcion gain
Stop saying “advancement”. The correct word is “advance”.
I trust the meaning is nevertheless clear 😉
Love this series. The level and pace are great!
Thank you! 😊
Great content. Thank you
Glad you enjoyed it! 😊
Cool. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
I have an excessive amount of manganese in my well water. You are all welcome to it as it is nothing but a nuisance to me. 😂
Moving away from fossil fuels 😂. I has doubled in the last 10years .
I recently learned about the importance of manganese in Hadfield steel, which is a very strong alloy.
Nice video, near subject matter. No idea why the algorithm showed it to me, but it works-- actually been scratching around for a couple of manganese minerals. Have a property in Alleghany county NC, where Alleghanite and Galaxite (even though Galax is in another county, it was first described in Alleghany) were first described. I REALLY want to find my own nice samples of both : )
Sorry, but your presentation is so low-energy and boring I couldn't watch more than 4 minutes of it.
Different people like different styles, that can't be helped! 😊
Manganese also plays an important roll in the body's ability to repair tissue as well as other biochemical functions.
