Quarrying is a much more dangerous process, where they dig down and cut into big chunks of rock, while using explosives to rip out the chunk and transport it elsewhere to divide up into smaller pieces. ]]> 2023-05-15 14:49:43 UTC https://padlet.com/2600350_1/abpuut5s4u3qbvuw/wish/2591453091 Where are the largest Reserves of Gold? 2600350_1 https://padlet.com/2600350_1/abpuut5s4u3qbvuw/wish/2591459889 The largest reserve of gold in the world is in the New York Federal Reserve Bank.

Their vault is around 100 feet underground and has an estimated 6,200 tonnes of gold, Which is around 500,000 gold bars. For reference, a 1 pound gold bar is worth around 22,000 dollars.]]> 2023-05-15 14:54:27 UTC https://padlet.com/2600350_1/abpuut5s4u3qbvuw/wish/2591459889 Gold mine in South Africa 2600350_1 https://padlet.com/2600350_1/abpuut5s4u3qbvuw/wish/2591460336 2023-05-15 14:54:46 UTC https://padlet.com/2600350_1/abpuut5s4u3qbvuw/wish/2591460336 What are the major uses of Gold? 2600350_1 https://padlet.com/2600350_1/abpuut5s4u3qbvuw/wish/2591460817 Jewelry

Reducing the cost of Jewelry or in someway reducing its value would help lower the demand for it. ]]> 2023-05-15 14:55:20 UTC https://padlet.com/2600350_1/abpuut5s4u3qbvuw/wish/2591461212 How is the environment affected by the extraction of gold? 2600350_1 https://padlet.com/2600350_1/abpuut5s4u3qbvuw/wish/2591461541 Extracting gold negatively affects the environment by destroying the ecosystem, depletion of water quality, and loss of major vegetation, (trees, roots, etc).]]> 2023-05-15 14:55:36 UTC https://padlet.com/2600350_1/abpuut5s4u3qbvuw/wish/2591461541 Describe the process of Reclamation 2600350_1 https://padlet.com/2600350_1/abpuut5s4u3qbvuw/wish/2591462099 Reclamation is the process of environmental effects of surface mining are minimized and mined lands are returned back to normal.]]> 2023-05-15 14:55:59 UTC https://padlet.com/2600350_1/abpuut5s4u3qbvuw/wish/2591462099 What is gold classified as? 2600350_1 https://padlet.com/2600350_1/abpuut5s4u3qbvuw/wish/2591464505 Gold is classified as a transition medal, because they can bond with other elements very easily. This is mostly why you won't find gold in a big solid chunk, rather you would find it fussed with other metals. Gold is also solid at room temperature.]]> 2023-05-15 14:57:37 UTC https://padlet.com/2600350_1/abpuut5s4u3qbvuw/wish/2591464505 How does gold form? 2600350_1 https://padlet.com/2600350_1/abpuut5s4u3qbvuw/wish/2591465334 The majority of scientists believe that the formation of gold originated from the Big Bang, and the supernova that followed it, along with stars constantly colliding with each other, over the course of millions and billions of years.]]> 2023-05-15 14:58:12 UTC https://padlet.com/2600350_1/abpuut5s4u3qbvuw/wish/2591465334 How is gold mined/refined? 2600350_1 https://padlet.com/2600350_1/abpuut5s4u3qbvuw/wish/2591470703 2023-05-15 15:01:59 UTC https://padlet.com/2600350_1/abpuut5s4u3qbvuw/wish/2591470703 All of the major gold mines in the world 2600350_1 https://padlet.com/2600350_1/abpuut5s4u3qbvuw/wish/2591477477 2023-05-15 15:06:51 UTC https://padlet.com/2600350_1/abpuut5s4u3qbvuw/wish/2591477477 Open Pit Mining 2600350_1 https://padlet.com/2600350_1/abpuut5s4u3qbvuw/wish/2591508999 Open-pit mining is where they dig a big hole into the ground to slowly extract resources, this is probably the most known type of mining.]]> 2023-05-15 15:28:17 UTC https://padlet.com/2600350_1/abpuut5s4u3qbvuw/wish/2591508999 Room and Pillar Mining 2600350_1 https://padlet.com/2600350_1/abpuut5s4u3qbvuw/wish/2593175762 Room and Pillar mining is where they break large chunks of rock, while also digging around other areas, pretty much creating rooms underground.]]> 2023-05-16 14:14:38 UTC https://padlet.com/2600350_1/abpuut5s4u3qbvuw/wish/2593175762 Longwall Mining 2600350_1 https://padlet.com/2600350_1/abpuut5s4u3qbvuw/wish/2593175972 Longwall mining is where they dig a big straight tunnel and mine all of the coal along the way or along the sides of the tunnel.]]> 2023-05-16 14:14:46 UTC https://padlet.com/2600350_1/abpuut5s4u3qbvuw/wish/2593175972 Solution Mining 2600350_1 https://padlet.com/2600350_1/abpuut5s4u3qbvuw/wish/2593176095 Solution Mining is a mining process used to recover minerals such as copper and uranium through boreholes drilled into the ground to eventually reach a deposit of said minerals.]]> 2023-05-16 14:14:51 UTC https://padlet.com/2600350_1/abpuut5s4u3qbvuw/wish/2593176095 Surface Mining 2600350_1 https://padlet.com/2600350_1/abpuut5s4u3qbvuw/wish/2593206925 2023-05-16 14:34:11 UTC https://padlet.com/2600350_1/abpuut5s4u3qbvuw/wish/2593206925 SubSurface Mining 2600350_1 https://padlet.com/2600350_1/abpuut5s4u3qbvuw/wish/2593207198 2023-05-16 14:34:23 UTC https://padlet.com/2600350_1/abpuut5s4u3qbvuw/wish/2593207198 Sources 2600350_1 https://padlet.com/2600350_1/abpuut5s4u3qbvuw/wish/2593239080 Kumah, A.
