A nuclear bomb does not have a magma chamber on top of it when it goes off. 😂 So the cloud size comparison isn't that compatible too me.

You can't take politics out of geology, but you are looking at things the wrong way. The CIA are "Looking" at Russia's geology through the conflict in Ukraine so as to weaken Putin's power and put in their 'Puppet' to control! Obviously to profit from it.

Yes, its al about the money for the elite.

That's an extremely interesting video indeed. The thing you should do to have a better understanding of what's going on in the region is looking at the history. Ukraine was artificially created by the Bolsheviks to weaken Russia. Right after the revolution, people in that area declared themselves as the Donetsk- Krivoy Rog Soviet Republic which indicates that the inhabitants of that region consider themselves as one entity, in fact very close to what they call Novo Rossia. As you stated, the natural resources in that region would represent a drop in a bucket hence those resources are unlikely the reason of that conflict. The main reason is the constant shelling of the Russian population in Donetsk and Lugansk and the persecution of Russian speaking people since the Maidan coup in 2014. I'm a Belgian living in Thailand so I have no personal interest in that story. This only the summary of what I know and studied at the university. I'm 72 of age so I went through all that evolution since the construction of the iron Curtain.

The Donbas is Russian!!

What on earth is the U.S. neocon regime doing on European soil? What business is it of that loathed regime to study Ukraine or Russia’s geology? Do Russians wander around the U.S. sizing up the extent of untapped potential natural resources, as if they had a God given right to knowledge and the exploitation of it? The U.S. neocon regime would freak out if Russian geologists and natural resources experts were studying Texas and chatting assets across the United States. The presumption sickens most of the world. Anachronistic toothless tiger NATO is provoking proxy wars wherever there is profit to be made from the chaos that is provoked. No NATO in Europe. There is no US territory to defend in Europe. Time to close sitting duck bases across the globe and sort out the disastrous state of the collapsing divided « Republic »and its neglected suffering population of fleeced taxpayers. Why are US funds buying up some of the finest agricultural land from a devastated and corrupt state, otherwise known as « covert colonialism ». The US neocon regime’s announced and planned destruction of Europe’s key energy supply pipelines, Nordstream 1&2, has destroyed the world’s 4th biggest industrial economy, reducing to ruins Germany which generated 30% of Europe’s GDP, now in deep recession. With « friends and Allie’s » like the U.S. neocons, who needs ennemies? Leave Russia, Europe and China alone please. 🙌🙌 Paris.

Great video, thank you

Thus the question of US , NATO involvement

Now I can better see why the resource poor EU countries (along with the Biden Family and others...) are so keen on making a coup in Ukraine and turning it into their own puppet state.

There is no reason for President Putin to give into NATO and its Axis of Evil. President Putin wants two things. A buffer between NATO AND Russia. (It was supposed to be Ukraine until the United States reneged on the Minsk accords), and safety for the Russians who were/are living in what was once eastern Ukraine (but for centuries before that were western Russia). When President Putin was first talking about his Special Military Operation (before advancing into what used to be Eastern Ukraine) He might have been happy with only the eastern most previously Ukrainian Oblasts that bordered Russia. He might have been willing to have them as autonomous zones the way the northern oblasts of Georgia and eastern oblasts of Moldova are autonomous zones. He might have been happy to call those areas the buffer zone between NATO (even allowing Ukraine to join NATO) and Russia. That will no longer be the case. After expending so much talent and treasure fighting not only Ukraine but NATO, by proxy, President Putin will not be satisfied until Russia owns all the territory to the Knieper River, including Kiev, and the Kiev Oblast, which, along with Cherkasy Oblast, and the others on the western side of the Knieper will be the autonomous zones, and President Putin’s required buffer. President Putin will reclaim the Odesa Oblast, but will cede to Moldova the area of Odesa sound of Moldova and west of the Dniester Estuary. Moldova will have ports on the Black Sea. President Putin will have a dacha in Odesa on the Black Sea for his retirement. Ukraine will be worth very little to anyone, having lost its oil and wheat fields. Keane’s idea of giving Ukraine the green light to let NATO munitions and weapons systems attack into Mother Russia will only drive the Russian bear into a corner from which he may come out shooting nukes into western Ukraine (I would guess along the M21 highway that runs from Moldova to Belarus. Launching Kinzhal hypersonic carrying medium yield nukes to detonate underground (minimizing radioactive fallout) 30 miles apart along the M21 would create a line over which NATO could never cross. The buffer President Putin requires would be even wider, extending from the latter day Maginot Line to the Knieper. All the weapons systems caught in Ukraine would be spoils of war. The countries of NATO’s Axis of Evil would, none, respond with their nukes as President Putin’s strike would be measured and proportionate, only intended as retaliation for attacking Mother Russia. President Putin’s strike would be reasonable in the same way that the United States bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki were reasonable in August 1945.

02:00, "oldest rocks" is a joke ! There's same high speed mecanical grano-classification, all over the world, that was explained in 80's, in "Drama in the rocks" film. Hydrologic studies in Colorado.

All imperial wars were and are about natural resources. No matter how much an empire has, it will fight to increase it.

When I was in 6th grade, a boy pointed out, "If you look at the edges of Africa and South America, it looks like a puzzle that could fit together." The teacher skeptically said, "That's a very long way to move."

thank you very much

6:24 the *_Imperial-2-Metric shift_* ;-)

This was very informative. Russia wants the Donbas not for the natural resources per se but for the industrial capacity that has grown up around it. The Donbas is highly industrialized, and could contribute greatly to Russia’s GDP if successfully annexed. Ukraine has every reason not to let Russia take it without a fight.

Не ваше завидуйте молча ))) Ищите в другом месте ))) И немного математической части для Полв на Домбасе все русские. Мы уже начали качать и продавать будем вам за дорого вот всё)))

Russia was sending most of it gas and petrol to europe. What if Ukraine could sell that instead of russia? and trough the very same pipes.

So, the geological factor of the war might be mostly about a small coal deposit located conveniently near a large iron deposit, which together make steel. Steel is only ~2% carbon, so I wouldn't think needing to transport coal from elsewhere would make much difference in the cost of making steel. I wonder if maybe Putin just hasn't "done the math" of this to see if it is REALLY worth the hundreds of thousands of his citizens' lives that he is investing to seize this patch of coal?

Okey, the globalist want it. They are willing to sacrifice (kill) who ever they have to. The Ukraine army is fighting for Blackrock. Pure evil...

what about the 12trillion $ of rare earth minerals?

Los inversionistas de Blackrock recibieron toda esta zona como garantía del dinero prestado a los corruptos del gobierno Ucraniano, ellos son dueños de la industria militar de EEUU y Europa, ellos le pagan a Biden o quien sea presidente, protegen sus intereses, buen aporte, gracias

I would watch this, but in description you say that Russia launched a "full-scale invasion" of Ukraine, attempting to seize the capital city, Kyiv, and the eastern half of the country". This is absolutely incorrect. It was not a "full scale invasion" with only 60,000 troops (against 400,000), and the aim was not to seize Kyiv and the eastern half. As we found out later it was to force Ukraine not to join NATO, which, obviously, poses an existential danger to Russia with US missiles 6 minutes from Moscow, as is now clearly demonstrated, if it needed to be. in March and April 2022, an agreement had been reached in Istambul, and Russia showed good will and withdrew immediately. Ukraine was to keep virtually all its territories except two tiny portions in Donetsk and Luhansk, who had held a referendum for independence prior to invasion and then to be reunited with Russia, as Crimea did in 2014. The war was totally unnecessary and only started when Boris Johnson went to Kyiv to urge Zelensky to continue fighting on the express demand of Biden. If you check the record, you will find that Zelensky was elected on the promise of ending the war, but was prevented to do that by the neo-Nazi Azov Batallion financed and armed by the US. It is therefore pointless to listen to this video when you base it on wrong premises.

Happy goat ✨

Such videos usually get so viral

And, here I thought that NATO loves the people of Ukraine. 😮

Crimea has been Russian since Catherine the Great in the 1600s -before America was even a country. Ukraine didn't become a country until 1991 and has no legitimate claim to Russian heredity.

Geology is fascinating. We have to take the intro level classes as part of our preparation for physical anthropology. This is my admission that I have the highest level of fogg, fuzzy and imperfect understanding of wjat is being discussed here. "Oh right I remember learning about that as I desperately crammed for that test.." Thanks for the fine video production and great discussion. Salute!

Geologie ist der schlüssel zum verständnis der geschichte der ukraine nach dm ersten weltkrieg. Stalin wollte eine schnelle industrialisierung und benötite dafür arbeiter und musste diese ernähren. Die vorstellung war dss man die produktivität der Landweirtschaft erhöht durch kollektivierung und man auf diese Weise massive Überschüsse erhielt und Arbeitskräfte erhält die die Schwerindustrie aufbauen, Kanäle bauen Dämme bauen u.s.w. In der Ukraine führte die Requirierung von Getreide zur Hungersnot "Holdomor" und auf der anderen Seite haben wir den Aufbau der Schwerindustrie über den Kohlelagerstätten und den Eisenerzlagerstätten. Hierfür wurden Russen umgesiedelt... Als hitler russland überfiel sah er dass wesentliche tiele der rüstungsindustrie im Dmbas waren und ferner getreideüberchüsse zmindest potenziell möglich waren. Dies war viel interessanter und wichtiger als ein angriff im norden und so blieb Leningrad / Petersburg zwar belagert aber nicht weiter angegriffen während man in Südrussland vorrückte und demit eine wesentlichen Tiel der Rüstungsproduktion vernichten wollte. Teils wurden deutsche von Ukreinern freudig begrüßt insbsondere, weil sie sch nach dem holdomor Verbesserungen versprachen und die russischen bevölkungsanteile wieder nach rusland wünschten nd au juden war man generellnicht gut zu sprechen. Diese teilweise erhebliche Unterstützung schrumpfte im kriegsverlauf als man erkannte dass es unter deutscher Oberherrschaft keine frei Ukraine unter sinnvollen Bedingungen geben würde. Hitler wertete die ukrainer aus rassistischen Günden gegenüber volksdeutschen erheblich ab! Gewiss waren dieser rasissmus einer der Gründe dafür das Deutschland in der folge nicht so untestützt wurde dass das volle potenzial derukreine genutzt werden konnte um den krieg gegen russland zu gewinnen. Einer der gründe war auch technscher natur. russland demontierte die industrie und baute sie in Sibirien wieder auf so weit das möglich war.... indernachkriegszet wurde manches wieder aufgebaut und die Schwerindustrie im dombas war wichtig. In soweit kannman sicherlich nachvollziehen dass diese von russischen ungesiedelten arbeitern und anderen aufgebeuten industrien, so auf ukrainischem boden als russisch angesehn werden und dieses land auch als russische heimat angesehen wird von denen die originär aus Rusland kamen und russich sprechen; zumidest in der tendenz. Andererseits wird man wohl akzeptieren müssen, dass bedingt durch den Klimawandel und die Bemühungen weg zu kommen von Kohle und Gas die relative Bedeutung diese Rohstoffe in Zukunft wohl abnehmen wird. Gleichwohl wird man steh bernötigen nd gleichwohl werden solche Industrien in einem bnötigten Umfang weiter bestehen. Ohne Frege wird auch deitlich welche bedeutung mariopol hat und warumm dort ein riesiges Stahlwerk existiert! Der blick auf die Geologie ist sicher ein Aspekt der in den medien wenig auftaucht aber eine bedeutug im konflikt hat so dass ihre Darstellung das Bild deutlich abrundet, vielen Dank für ihre Mühe!

Thank you for the analysis. You allowed me to understand the conflict better. But, could the same geology be behind the US's interest in Ukraine? Could it explain the yellow coup of 2014?

The map looks like something middle between a chicken and a dog

Hello Paul. I’m a geophysicist who was involved in exploration for natural gas in the DDB (Dniepr-Donetsk Basin) just prior to, and during the war, until I finally left the state oil and gas company where I was working, and the country, at the end of 2022. I have also been following the conflict very closely. And based on my own observations and on the opinions of reputable analysts, Russia’s aggression has very little to do with its interest in Ukraine’s natural resources. The size of the prize is simply too minuscule in comparison with Russia’s undeveloped reserves. This war is simply a manifestation of Russia’s and Putin’s imperial ambitions and colonial nature. Sure, the corrupt gauleiters and various criminal elements have been bestowed with opportunities to enrich themselves as a reward for their part in occupation and control of these territories, which happen to be in the coal-producing part of the basin. However, since 2014 there has actually been a spate of decommissioning of the coal mines in occupied Donbass, and many of the mentioned invaders and collaborators made money by selling off disused equipment and scrap metal. Russia has been conducting a scorched-earth warfare all along the front, which is evidence for the fact that it does not care in the slightest about the economy or the extraction industry of this region. Equally misguided are those who have fallen for Putin’s rhetoric about the “eastward expansion of NATO”. Repeating this talking point reveals a complete lack of understanding of what NATO is and how it operates. Ukraine was infinitely far from even thinking about joining NATO before 2014. It is everything that Russia did since - annexation of Crimea, hybrid war in Donbass, and finally the full scale invasion of 2022 - that has (hopefully) brought Ukraine in the doorstep of NATO. And it is precisely the threat of Russia’s aggression that has caused its former European republics and satellites to strive for NATO membership. And now, after Finland and Sweden joined the alliance, Putin scarcely batted an eye - yet another proof of the falsehood of the entire anti-NATO rhetoric. I do appreciate your knowledge of Ukraine’s gross geological structure and your popular explanation of it for general viewers. I do believe, however, that Donbass fell victim to Russian aggression primarily due to its geographical proximity to its nasty neighbour, and to some extent due to its predominantly Russian-speaking population, which facilitated the use of deceitful propaganda about the (nonexistent) discrimination based on spoken language. Russia is an opportunist aggressor who, in the spring of 2022, conducted an ill-prepared and reckless operation which was meant to destroy the independent state of Ukraine and to subjugate it to Moscow. This operation failed spectacularly, as the Russian forces took a pummeling around Kyiv, in Kherson and in the Kharkiv area. The surviving forces from these areas were reshuffled to Donetsk and Lugansk, because one of Putin’s stated goals is to absorb these “oblasts” within their administrative boundaries, in accordance with the sham referendums conducted AFTER their partial occupation in 2014 (the same occurred in Zaporizhje and Kherson oblasts in 2022). So as you can see, this really has little to do with the subsurface riches of DDB. I hope I have managed to make my point.

No, .most of the Russian people of that Donetsk region have been there well before the Soviet Union. The Ukraine border as shown on western maps didn't come to be until 1946-48, and Crimea added as autonomous region in the 1950s. If you check older maps and history 😢 Malorussians, today's Ukrainians, were concentrated as Cossacks on Poland's southeastern border guard generally the area of Galicia or western Ukraine. Look up Novorossiya, you'll see maps going back 300 years. To put it bluntly the western Ukrainians are problematic for the Poles, Belarusians, the Russians, Hungarians and Romanians because of their culture style of their hierarchy. Sadly for history the mistake was made to give the car keys to the entire Ukraine SSR.

Good work. Thank you.

Great video to produce, geology and control of major resources are the chips on the table of the conflict. Politically it shows what a terrible decision on the Soviet Russia to create the Ukraine SSR in the first place and not see the "what ifs" should the Soviet Union disband and the Ukraine SSR became fully independent leaving the door open for the US western empire to slip in billions to buy people and property... that's how history is sometimes, a bummer.

I studied geology in 1961 with a great teacher at commun9ty college. You are right up there with Dr Pipkin. Thank you for filling in the spaces between Dr Pipkin and CZcams!!

I just found your channel and listened to your now 8-month old report and it was a good perspective. I will send you the information you require to better understand this conflict privately. 🤐

Before the 2014 coup d'état funded by the US and NATO, there was an ongoing process that was almost complete where Russia would lease the areas where the Russian military bases were and have been since the 18th century. After the coup d'état, NATO would probably take over these because these settlements were removed. In the Minsk agreement of 2015, Ukraine would be intact but where the Donbas area would become self-governing but under Ukraine. Who prevented the Minsk agreement? Yes, NATO The peace draft from Istanbul in the spring of 2022 would still have Ukraine intact in the same way as in the Minsk agreement, but the peace draft was blocked by NATO. We now know after several statements from e.g. Lloyd Austin that the goal of the conflict was regime change in the Kremlin. The 2019 Rand corporation document on Ukraine and Nord Stream appears to have been the plan for the conflict and it comes from Washington and it matches reality too well to be a coincidence. We also know that approx. 30% of Ukraine's arable land has been bought up by Wall Street companies. All of this combined suggests that the Western world wants access to Ukraine's raw material wealth.

For Russia its about national security, strategic interests and people (with russian culture, that said the difference is marginal. I learned russian at school and understand 50% ukrainian out of the box). For the west its about geopolitics and resources. Blackrock et al bought black soil acres the size of Italy in Ukraine for example, And there is also Iron, Titanium, Uranium, gas, basically everything the West is short of.

It's a very interesting analysis. I don't think the oil and gas deposits are of great interest for the Russians, but they'll surely exploit them. For me, the main reason for the invasion is much dreamier. Russia considers Ukraine (and most other parts of the former Soviet Union) as part of 'Greater Russia', which means it must either be a Russian vassal state or a part of Russia proper. The main reason of the focus on the Donbas, is the Russian-speaking population which is largely pro-Russia and anti-Ukraine (which is an indirect consequence of the geology) ...

It will good if you extend your excellent analysis to the lithium factor of geology and a also devote section of your analysis on the western corporate interests in Ukraine. Thanks for the unique perspective.

Please, review the rare earth metal sites in the Donbas Luhansk Oblasts. The Crimea and Black Sea energy resources start to become very meaningful if one thinks of Ukraines entering the Euro-Union. Russia wants the energy, agriculture and the Ports, but also to deny Euro economic growth.

Geology and money might be a matter of interest to you, but Russia tried to have Ukraine agree to the Donna's as an autonomous *part of Ukraine* that was allowed to keep it's language and culture, read the Minsk Accords, this whole mess is because of Biden, the neoliberals and the neocons.

there are so many comment the only thing is no NATO expansion that the main reason for the war. russia is such a rich country more natural resources than ugrain. what is your main point here you should understand history

Russia didn't need or covet any ukrainian land so neither geology nor resources played any role in this conflict, on the other hand NATO's threat to Russian existence is very real and has been widely known for a long time now.

I agree there's a huge economic interest in Ukraine. That is why many West companies are giving money to Zelinsky. Actually, the country has already been sold. Economic interests are always behind a war.

Resources had absolutely nothing to do with this conflict ...Pershing missiles do!

My friend believe me that geology motivation is the last thing. I was born in USSR in 1981 and I feel them better than you. The problem is the collapse of USSR and ethnic issues. The most catastrophic geopolitical event in 20th century is the collapse of Soviet Union, it should not be happened at all , because after the collapse many people died in many conflicts on the basis of ethnic issues, because in the USSR were up to 100 different ethic groups/minorities, which after the major event decided to create their own countries , except the 15 soviet republics.
