A cliffside bookstore has been built inside a massive limestone sinkhole in Guangxi China. Set in the Mianhua Tiankeng it sits inside a karst collapse feature formed over thousands of years as underground caves eroded and caved in leaving sheer vertical limestone walls. Bookshelves and walkways are built directly... show more

Unbelievable art by Abraham Poincheval. In 2017, he spent a week sealed inside a limestone rock. The work was designed to explore time, stillness, and isolation, contrasting human life with “mineral time.”

$Devils Tower was formed from molten rock (magma) that cooled and fractured into striking vertical columns. It is not a volcano itself; rather, the magma solidified underground and was later exposed over millions of years as surrounding rock eroded away.$

Around 701 BC, Jerusalem was preparing for the worst siege of its history. The Assyrian army was coming, and the city's only water source, the Gihon Spring, lay outside the walls. King Hezekiah's solution: carve a 533 meter tunnel through solid limestone bedrock, diverting the spring's water to the Pool of Siloam inside the city. The residents would drink. The besiegers outside would find nothing. 2,700 years later, water still flows through it. And you can still walk it today, waist-deep, in the dark.

Rare Enhydro Quartz with over a hundred moving bubbles! 💦🫧 Each bubble is enclosed in a tiny negative crystal cavity with fluid inside, allowing the bubble to move back and forth. Quartz grows in a hydrothermal solution, and as it forms, water can become trapped inside portions of the crystal and remain preserved for millions of years. A truly fascinating piece! #enhydro #quartz #crystals #geology #bubbles #water #rocksforthespirit

The Cathedral of Syracuse was an ancient Greek temple. It sits right on top of the old Temple of Athena. Literally built into it. Those huge Doric columns you see inside aren’t 'inspired by' the Greeks. They are the Greeks. They didn’t destroy the temple. They filled the gaps and turned it into a church, letting the ancient structure live on almost untouched. So you walk in and you’re surrounded by 2,500 years of history in one room. Greek stone, medieval walls, Christian altars, all layered together. It feels less like architecture and more like time folding in on itself. An absolute wonder. 📍 Cathedral of Syracuse, Italy (vid: theblackhairedboy)

In ancient Egypt, if you were bitten by a snake or stung by a scorpion, you didn't just take medicine. You poured water over a rock. These carved stones are called cippi, or magical healing stelae. Egyptians believed that water poured over the stone would absorb the healing power of the spells and images carved into it. The afflicted person then drank the water or applied it to the wound. Each one shows the child god Horus standing on crocodiles, gripping snakes and scorpions in his fists. A protection spell, activated by water.

And this? This is the very first piece of artificial limestone, YES, CaCO3, YES, hard as f and YES, waterproof, what I made from… Wood ash ONLY!!! 100% caveman tech! Now look at the color of this thing. How would you describe it? May I say it has the color of the pyramids? Hell yeah! Why? BTW: this is just the binder. Add original, natural limestone and fossils and you’ll en up with “natural” limestone. (With a bit of potassium residue.) Any questions? The secret recipe maybe? Anyone interested? Here you go: 1. Burn 🔥 everything around you and collect the wood ash 2. Burn natural limestone (calcination) to produce quick lime Steps 1. and 2. can be combined into one step. 3. Make wood ash lye the traditional way, by dripping drip 💧 water on wood ash and collecting the water that went through the ash. Any vessel will do but an oak barrel is the traditional way doing it. I used a plastic bucket with holes at the bottom. The wood ash lye is mostly KOH and K2CO3. What we need is CaCO3. We need to change the letter K to letters Ca. We’ll do it by adding the letters Ca to the liquid. 4. Add quick lime (CaO) or hydrated lime, slaked lime (Ca(OH)2) to the lye until it stops bubbling in vinegar. (We badly miss a decent video at this point, Marcell!!!) 5. Add (or don’t add) fossils = natural limestone rubble to the mix, stir well 6. Get rid of of the excess liquid through a nub Now any expert can tell you that this will never make a stone because of two reasons: 1. Billions of years and 2. High pressure are needed Well, no. The first point is just total nonsense, and although the second has something in it, it is false. Virtually ANY pressure will make it, including my current technique of squeezing it in a kitchen cloth. I’m not kidding. No pressure- no stone, that is correct. But only a minimal level of pressure, using my bare hands is enough to push the freshly made CaCO3 molecules close enough for crystallization (calcit) to begin. And here we are.

$Can you see the hidden face in this Opal? 😮 This Opal formed over 100 Million years ago inside an ironstone concretion known as a “nut.” Cracks developed throughout the nut and later Silica-rich groundwater seeped in, filled the fractures, and slowly solidified into colorful Opal. What you’re seeing are natural Opal vein systems frozen in time. Koroit Nut Opal from Queensland, Australia$

A 2000 year old Roman water channel that still flows today This incredible underground aqueduct is hidden right inside the Smyrna Agora in Izmir, Türkiye. Built by the ancient Romans it originally carried fresh spring water to the city baths and fountains. The stone arches are incredibly well preserved and the main channel is actually large enough for a person to walk through. After 2000 years the water is still actively flowing and is currently used to irrigate the modern archaeological site.

🚨PromptShare🚨 Quick tsunami-style shot with Seedance 2 on Martini Art AI PROMPT A massive wall of ocean water rises and freezes mid-collapse above a coastal highway. Vehicles and debris are trapped inside the suspended liquid mass. The camera starts below the frozen wave, tilting upward to reveal its impossible scale. It then glides directly into the water mass, transitioning into a submerged perspective inside the suspended droplets before the wave crashes down in full speed

Hello Hugh Thomas , let’s do it one by one, sample by sample, stone by stone. Whenever an artificial stone recipe of mine reaches a certain stage that’s the results are comparable to the natural version I’ll send a cast sample to you (with its mold) to analyze. The first one could be this perfectly chiseled fake limestone cube. As you can see you can’t fit a razor blade between the stone and the cheap silicone mold from Temu. This proves my micro chiseling skills. The recipe is public, you don’t even need my cube, you could create your own - but you won’t. So I’ll send this cute cube to you. The “secret” recipe is: I started from wood ash lye, also called potash, or K2CO3, by slowly dripping water through hard wood ash. Hard wood ash from your fireplace, yeah. Then I added slaked lime, and the chemical reaction produced fine, molecular level CaCO3 particles, fine limestone floating in the liquid. FYI: the secret chemical reaction is, and was in the ancient times as well: K2CO3 + Ca(OH)2 = CaCO3 + 2KOH Yummy! Next step: I let the limestone particles settle, and poured the KOH, potassium hydroxide solution above (that also formed in the liquid, see above) into the kitchen sink as it is a very good drain cleaner indeed. I added water and poured it into the sink several times, trying to clean the slurry from the KOH. So yes, the cube is from almost pure limestone, CaCO3 - with some residual KOH contamination. The KOH contamination can be reduced infinitely, I just stopped after 4 rounds. (Pro tip: put the slurry into a filter bag and put the bag into a mountain creek for an hour.) The next step is filtering and pressing the remaining liquid from the slurry. Because it’s a wet mess at this point. Pressure is a key factor to success! At least one thing is accurate from the universal canon: no pressure-no stone. How do I know? By trying and failing a few (dozen) times. So I poured the white limestone slurry into a sock 🧦 and pressed and squeezed it by hand - and that was JUST enough pressure for the magic to happen 😮 It looks like nature/god is on our side, everything is working as it was designed this way. Then I put the almost dry limestone paste into this Temu mold. Fun fact: it still contains a lot of water which will eventually be pressed out as the crystallization progresses, so we’ll need to get rid of that water through a hole, a nub. But there is no hole 🕳️ on this Temu mold so I poured the excess liquid from the top a few times. Hardening time=drying time=crystallization time : 1 week. The important lesson I learned from this experience is as follows: I tried to understand why this sludge turned into hard stone, because, as we were told, IT IS IMPOSSIBLE, and my understanding is this: wood ash lye does two different magics in parallel for this to happen: 1. It magically contains the right kind of contamination to facilitate calcite crystal formation and 2. The incredibly high pH (remember, 2 molecules of KOH are produced from 1 molecule of K2CO3!) in the liquid boost the calcite formation even more. ———- My only request from you and your colleagues concerning this analysis is full, 100000% transparency. And be honest. I know something you clearly don’t: you have lost this battle already. We need the data fast, not in 4 years or something. Transparency means sharing whatever you find here on X, without scientific drama and pullbacks. We don’t need a 947 pages scientific paper. We need the results, the data only. BTW: I already know what you will find: a “special type of natural limestone” with some minimal potassium contamination🤣🤣🤣 Now feel free to DM me, let this scientific analysis happen! And thank you for your offer!

One of the most secure places during the last geomagnetic excursion and the civilziational collapse was this large underground city in Turkey known as Derinkuyu, built, in my opinion, before the Bronze Age Collapse. It was accidentally discovered by a man in Turkey who was renovating his basement in 1963. The tunnel led to a vast underground network—an underground city that could have housed 20,000 people along with their livestock. Of course, this was built by the elite, and it was in a perfect location and at an ideal elevation. Why a perfect place? You need to read my posts about safe places during geomagnetic excursions and local magnetic fields.
