The pressure created by earthquakes could trigger quartz veins to generate enough electricity to form large nuggets of gold, ...

Interestingly enough, earthquakes have the ability to cause quartz to form large gold nuggets, a fact that has been ...

Quartz, which can generate electricity, attracts large chunks of gold when stressed and squeezed by seismic shaking, ...

Geologists have known that gold is formed in quartz by earthquakes. But thanks to a new study, they have finally figured out ...

The electricity generated by quartz during tectonic shifts can drive the building blocks for gold out of Earth's crust, researchers have found.

Geologists have known for decades that gold forms in quartz with the help of earthquakes, but now they have worked out ...

But unlike other types of gold deposits, those found in quartz often cluster into giant nuggets. These nuggets float in the middle of what geologists call quartz veins, which are cracks in quartz ...

Nested within the SMC is this spectacular star cluster, known as NGC 346. Its hot stars unleash a torrent of radiation and energetic outflows, which erode the denser portions of gas and dust in the ...

"Clusters rich in red supergiants are very rare and tend to be very far away, but they play a crucial role in understanding key aspects in the evolution of massive stars." In the past, map makers ...
