Calling for testers to review a real Geopolymer kit. Australia only.
What you'll need... a high speed mixing blade, a bowl, spatula & some social media to post your results.
I have been making real Geopolymer for the last 20 years. Real science requires standardised test procedures. Trev just does things & calls it science. UV on a rock lichen, waving a dosimeter in free air, claiming it shows the stone is artificial withoit ruling out radon.
🤷♂️🤣🙈
@ScienceboyJack@TrevorHawkeHRG Trevor Hawke aka Trevor Millar, fake looking Alien artifact guy with dodgy carvings...says "engage the science" while he is using a dosimeter in free air outside of a lab to claim material is artificial. That's not science.
The molds are in an oven bag, with a damp paper towel, cooking at the next reaction peak of the phosphoric acid geopolymer. 95°C. The other one is it 65°C. You want to hit these 2 temps during a heat cure cycle.
I make REAL geopolymers! 😐
Follow for real recipes.
@TrevorHawkeHRG Where to start?The non peer reviewed paper where anyone can upload.Using UV on calcium efflorescence,claiming geopolymer without analysing the material to see why it glows.Using a dosimeter in free air to gather meaningless data.Taking unofficial sample from the Coricancha wall🧠
@TheProjectUnity@FoMaHun Logic fail. If they were drainage points, they'd be on all blocks. And they aren't always on tje bottom. More likely they held scaffoldimg.
Germany has a "mountain" that wasn't built by nature. 🇩🇪🧂
Meet Monte Kali (nicknamed Kalimanjaro), a 250 meter tall artificial mountain made from more than 256 million tonnes of salt.
Since 1976, waste salt from potash mining has been piled here, and the mountain is still growing today. Roughly 900–1,000 tonnes of salt are added every hour via conveyor belts.
From a distance it looks like a snow-covered peak, but it's actually one of the largest industrial waste heaps on Earth.
The mountain has become a tourist attraction with panoramic views of the Werra Valley, but it's also highly controversial. Rain dissolves the salt, increasing salinity in nearby groundwater and rivers, impacting local ecosystems.
A man-made mountain visible from space, built entirely from table salt.
Would you climb it? 🤯🏔️🧂

An application for conductive Geopolymer. Conductive electrodes and semi-permeable membranes.
Electricity from 2 streams of different salt level waste waters, separated by a membrane.⚡⚡⚡⚡
Japanese scientists have discovered a way to generate electricity by mixing saltwater and freshwater.
In August 2025, a facility harnessing the energy of mixing saltwater and freshwater, known as "blue energy," began operations in Fukuoka, Japan.
While Japan is a leader in advancing this technology, the underlying scientific principle is a long-standing concept that utilizes osmosis to generate power.
Specifically, the process is a type of pressure-retarded osmosis (PRO). It involves the following steps: a special semi-permeable membrane is used to separate two water streams with different salt concentrations. One side uses concentrated seawater, which is made even saltier by using waste brine from a nearby desalination plant. The other side uses treated wastewater with a low salt concentration.
Unlike solar or wind energy, this method works continuously, day and night, independent of weather conditions. Researchers estimate that if implemented globally at river mouths, it could provide up to 15% of the world’s energy needs — a staggering potential for clean, sustainable power.
San Francisco plants ornamental fruit trees on purpose, bred to flower but never bear fruit, since falling fruit gets treated as litter and a slip hazard.
Since around 2012, a quiet group called the Guerrilla Grafters, started by Tara Hui, has spliced branches from real pear, plum, and cherry trees onto those sterile city trees.
The city's own forester has admitted her team has been looking for the grafters for years and has not found them.
