Lookinkg for EU science fundings? Let's become diamond prospectors! Perhaps when we show them where is the money, they'll take us seriously...

Re: Diamonds of the gods?
Those are some powerful plasma pinches. Who knows how potent the current and magnetic field was in that region.

There is the Crater of Diamonds State Park in Arkansas about 200 miles from where I live. I think you pay a $5 fee to find diamonds and you can keep what you find. Help yourself.

Mount Warning & the Tweed Valley, NSW. To me the general morphology looks like uplift rather than erosion. The parabolic shapes around the peak and aligned ridges shown attached lead me to doubt the erosion idea in favour of something more organised...

Re: Mount Warning & Tweed Valley, NSW
BOOM! looks like discharge center or area especially with the 'tail' that is the river going to the gold coast and all that electrically created sand. love the mountain ridges (lichtenberg) surrounding it to the west and north and gentler to the south
Mount Warning! What a blast from the past for the earth and me. Climbed that bloody mountain years ago to be the first people to see the sunrise for that day. Torches ran out of batteries so had to climb it in the dark and nearly froze to death. Those were the days
I am no expert in geology and do not know if this sort of formation is well known or not, but I found these "spicules" quite interesting. How could they have formed?
Could some electrical formation porcess be at work here? Isn`t there also a thread somewhere about some sort of electrical scarring on mountains (on a small scale)?

Re: Ice "spicules" on Mt. Rainer
I've climbed Rainier 5 times, and also in Alaska and Peru.
What we are looking at in the photo are nieves penitentes (Spanish for "penitent snow").
From Mountaineering, The Freedom of the Hills, Third Edition: "(They) are pillars produced when suncups are so pronounced that the cups intersect to leave columns of snow standing between the hollows. They are peculiar to snowfields at high altitudes where radiation and atmospheric conditions conducive to suncup formation are particularly intense, and reach their most striking development among the higher peaks of the Andes and Himalaya, where they may attain height of several feet, with consequently difficult travel. The columns often slant towards the midday sun."
But why suncups take the shape and size they do is unexplained.

Dead Sea canyons
I did not find any references to Israel or Jordan that seemed to talk about EDM on this forum, so I will mention that using google maps (terrain or satellite) if you look at the Dead Sea, immediately east you can see canyons that look very much like the Grand Canyon in the USA (much smaller of course).
These canyons have the classic EDM look. Again, very similar to the Grand Canyon.

Re: Dead Sea canyons
Velikovsky wrote about the Dead Sea.
The Dead Sea region was the scene of an interplanetary electrical discharge when a powerful electrical spark leaped down from above or sprang up from the earth.
Yes, it must be EDM, as that gives a source for the salt.
