@RicoQuierrez What are we doing?

We are carrying out large scale field experiments to leach copper from mine tailings (ground rock waste) - this will help recover copper from historical tailings, both reducing the need for new mining and remediating tailings at the same time. #tailings

Zambia Unveils Colossal 37kg Cluster of Emeralds

@m_ajohnson ✍️

“A massive cluster of #emeralds weighing 37,555-gram (187,775 carat) has been discovered in #Zambia, making it the largest such find in the country's HISTORY.

The cluster was found at the Kagem emerald mine, which is one of the largest emerald mines in the WORLD. It is estimated to be worth over $75 million.

The cluster is made up of over 2,000 individual emeralds, ranging in size from a few carats to over 100 carats. The emeralds are of exceptional quality, with a deep green color and few inclusions.

The cluster has been named the Kafubu Cluster, after the #KafubuRiver, which flows near the Kagem emerald mine. It is the largest emerald cluster ever found in Zambia and one of the largest in the world.

The Kafubu Cluster is expected to attract a lot of interest from collectors and jewelers around the world. It will be auctioned by #Gemfields on November 17, 2023, in #London, #England.

The discovery of the Kafubu Cluster is a major coup for Zambia, which is already a major producer of emeralds. It is also a sign of the health of the emerald mining industry in Zambia.

The emerald mining industry in Zambia is worth billions of dollars per year and employs thousands of people. The discovery of the Kafubu Cluster is a major boost for the #industry and is likely to attract more #investment in the future.

The Kafubu Cluster is a truly remarkable find and is a testament to the beauty and rarity of emeralds. It is sure to be a major attraction for collectors and jewelers around the world. https://t.co/Wc8yGl0TP6

NEWS JUST IN: President Ramaphosa has transferred to the Minister of Electricity, Dr. Kgosientsho Ramokgopa all powers and functions contained in Section 34(1) of the Electricity Regulation Act, previously entrusted to the Minister of Mineral Resources and Energy, Gwede Mantashe.

This is quite good news though not ruled out. (And I hope this will happen)

According to the recent model guidance, the chance of TY #Mawar's landfall in PH landmass is LOW. The models are coming to an agreement that there will be a weakening of the subtropical ridge by weekend.

This subtropical ridge (high pressure area) to the east of "Mawar" (look at the third image) is the main steering mechanism in the movement of the storm. Meaning, tagapag-galaw ng bagyo.

The weakening of this ridge will be due to the passing of a midlatitude shortwave trough coming from China (see the fourth image). Once this ridge breaks, it will allow the typhoon to move in a poleward track, instead of moving westward.
