Description

Today, Jesse and Chris discuss the geology of Nickel - The Devil’s Metal.  Surprisingly, Earth’s core has a high percentage of Nickel - 10 to 20% of the core is nickel.  We allow ourselves the luxury of getting into the details on nickel and why the core has so much.  Of all the metals we’ve discussed on the podcast, the geology of nickel is the most complicated.  In addition to discussing the geologic settings that form or concentrate nickel, we also spend some time discussing the history and uses.  We hope you enjoy the discussion.We now have a live Mobile App for iOS and Android. There you can learn all the basics of geoscience with our CampGeo content, purchase a visual audiobook on the Geology of Yellowstone National Park, and listen to past PlanetGeo episodes!
