"PLOP"! Where am I?

1. The TauTona gold mine in South Africa, is 3.6 kilometers deep.



2. You would have to dig 35 kilometers to reach the mantle.


3. It would look like a big brown blob when we are going through the crust, we wound be like moles or earthworms. After passing through the crust and I reach the mantle it would be like a suana nut, it's more red and hard all through. When we are at the core it going to be like a suana, then suddenly a hot tub the back all over again. When we reach the other side it'll be like moles popping out the ground after winter.
1. I deserve whatever grade I get based on my work.

2. I believe i should get this because this is the grade I worked for.

3. I beleive that the mineral one was the best one because, I was able to find out the uses of rocks and mineral.

1. Igneous Roks: Obsidian, sometimes called volcanic glass, cools so quickly that no crystals form.

2. Sedimentary Rocks: Limestone is used as a tourist attraction

3. Metamorphic Rock: Marble-metamorphosed limestone-typically does not have the pronounced layers of slate, but is used for flooring and sculptures.


A cool rock

MY FAVORITE SCIENCE OF THE EARTH



Earth science as four main areas:

  1. BIOLOGY
  2. GEOLOGY
  3. OCEANOLOGY
  4. HYDROLOGY

that are all interesting in their own ways, but in my opinion biology and geology are my favorite. I like geology because of the way rocks and the heat of the earths core controls the movement of the continents.

I also enjoy biology because it is all about living things, life, and nature.
