Cosmic Gold Geology 101

by Prospector Jess

In this post you’re going to see a little bit about how rocks and gold form in space.  Here is “Introductory Gold Geology 101 part 1 of 2.”

What we show here is where gold comes from, specifically a little bit about the effects of stars and the formation of gold. I want you to watch the video and find out how gold relates to iron. Take a quick look to see if you can understand what happens to iron in a supernova.

What is it about iron that makes gold appear?  Hint: It’s mentioned in the video.

To start with, just watch the video about where gold comes from.

Good Prospecting,
