Gold Bearing Fluids with Prof Stephen Cox: Part 1

Prof. Stephen Cox talks about the origins and chemistry of gold-bearing fluids, and how the fluids are stored in deeply buried rocks. See PART 2 at • Gold Bearing Fluids wi... and more about gold at goo.gl/0mw8Z4

Fascinating. The best explanation I've ever heard of these processes.

[@dw8773]

These are such interesting and worthwhile videos. Thank you to those contributing their knowledge -- and I really wish you would make more!!

[@TheAuaddict]

Awsome! Thank You. I love all the videos on your channel and can't wait to see more....

[@GeologyFilms]

Thanks for your support. Part 2 of Stephen Cox's interview is in the production pipeline.

[@s.rsuresh5253]

Highly informative and illustrated videos, thanks for sharing, expects some more such videos in future

[@dobos420]

Hard rock university sent me. Great Video ty for sharing

[@Auriferousoz]

Thanks, I can't wait to watch part 2.

[@GeologyFilms]

Auriferousoz Thanks for your support. Part 2 is now online at ruclips.net/video/a2iEjXIUJEI/видео.html

[@laurabinkley3897]

Wonderful! Thank-you so much for uploading!

[@GeologyFilms]

Thanks very much for your support.

Hi Steve, I'm looking for the chemical equations associated with gold formation during retrograde metamorphism of pyroxenes to amphiboles. Do you think you can help me please! Many thanks.

[@erenibrahim688]

Great discussion...

[@gregwarner3753]

Sounds like hydrofracutering oil bearing shales to create the porosity needed to allow the oil to flow to the recovery well. Only on a vastly larger, hotter and higher pressure system. Interesting.

[@GeologyFilms]

Yes there are some similarities

[@srg6532]

I think of it as a hydraulic cylinder that can push a massive amount of pressure to move something.

[@getzvalerevich6565]

good stuff. love the video's

[@GeologyFilms]

Thank You and glad you like them!

[@robertknode9301]

Very interesting subject wonder if anybody has tried the heat pressure and fluid into an actual experiment. Good video but really short.

[@edward05lan]

thanks for shairng

[@GeologyFilms]

You're very welcome and thanks for watching

I don't understand why the gold couldn't be transported from the magma below the crust, it was interesting about the spacing of deposits though.

[@stevethornton3901]

Ammon Neff magma is liquid rock, gold deposits form as the plume of gold bearing fluid rises through fractured rock - at certain heights, as pressure and temps change elements fall-out of solution, leaving the vein of gold in the fractured rock through which it moved

Thanks

Paul Giamatti's brother is an OK interviewer

[@RandomNullpointer]

I enjoyed the video with the soft tone. It's annoying when everyone else is just screaming, all around youtube
thanks

[@MannyScoot]

So it will take an estimated million years to see some new gold formations.... Man I will be dead by then.

He avoided the question ,where did the deep water come from.

YeeeeeeeeHaaaaaaaa

I don't buy into this theory.
