@ 4:38 – Sonar mapping fires sound waves to the ocean floor.
@ 5:15 – "What we're looking for are metal deposits and they could be in the form of extinct vents like hydrothermal vents
Nick believes that the "now extinct" vents could contain rare metals & minerals.
''We would looking at gold & copper. And with the crusts, you're looking at platinum, cobalt, nickel & particularly the rare earths.
And the rare earths are Important now because they are VITAL to all our modern technology.
>Interesting McJunkin ties to Solyndra (solar company BO was all gaga over and went belly up..)
>Wowser..alot of Strava folks are from Solyndra..

“The move toward new and better technologies… means an ever-increasing demand for exotic metals that are scarce thanks to both geology and politics. Thin, cheap solar panels need tellurium, which makes up a scant 0.0000001% of the earth’s crust, making it three times rarer than gold.”
Some new photovoltaic technology uses less-expensive and abundant metals such as zinc and copper in place of “rare earth” metals like Gallium and Indium.

Lithium ion
Lithium-ion (and similar lithium polymer) batteries, widely known through their use in laptops and consumer electronics, dominate the most recent group of EVs in development. The traditional lithium-ion chemistry involves a lithium cobalt oxide cathode and a graphite anode. This yields cells with an impressive 200+ Wh/kg energy density[6] and good power density, and 80 to 90% charge/discharge efficiency.
Nickel-zinc battery are cheaper and lighter than Nickel-cadmium batteries. They are also cheaper (but not as light) than Lithium-Ion batteries.[87]

Rare earths are the new technology metals, with the light rare earth magnet metals growth driven by hybrid EVs and BEVs.
A look at the rare earth magnet metals - dysprosium, neodymium, and praseodymium.
Rare earths demand forecast by UBS to increase by 6.55 fold in a 100% EV world.

Elon Musk now owns X.com, the defunct domain of his second startup

That eventually became PayPal and made Musk a fortune

TSLA NOT Tesla

But while his latest prank — a series of April Fools' tweets Sunday joking that Tesla was bankrupt — was funny to many of his followers on Twitter, it also raised questions from some communication experts, Tesla analysts and governance watchers about the timing and the judgment of the tweets.
“It was not funny, because it’s not a joking matter,” said Gene Munster, who leads research for the venture-capital firm Loup Ventures. “It wasn't appropriate, because they had probably their worst week since the company was started, and it’s just not the week to be making jokes.”
