    Why Lithium in the Universe is an Elemental Mystery, with Professor Brian Fields

    It's the lightest metal on the periodic table and a crucial component in our modern technologies... but lithium also presents a fascinating cosmological problem. Professor Brian Fields joins WONDER podcast from the University of Illinois and shares with us the mysteries of primordial lithium formation in the universe - a story that takes us from interstellar dust to the big bang itself. Turns out, geologists aren't the only ones hunting for lithium... Thanks to the ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Geological Society of Australia⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ for making this episode of WONDER possible!

    The Lightest Metal on Earth with Professor Carl Spandler

    Professor Carl Spandler joins WONDER podcast to walk us through the lightest metal of all - lithium! We dive head first into Carl's world of critical minerals, from crystals the size of cars to manipulated markets and the 'science fights' behind the genesis of lithium ore deposits. Enjoy with us these explorations of the geological cycle of metal on Earth... soon enough these stories will take WONDER deep into space and the beginning of time itself...

    Geological Kinship Across the Pacific with Nick Zentner

    On todays episode of WONDER, Holly & Anthony cross live to Washington State for a chat with Nick Zentner! Nick is a professor at Central Washington University and he chats to us live from Ellensberg (not Seattle; close but no cigar for Holly, can't tell you why that brain fade happened!!)... Here we cover the ancient kinship between Australian and North American geology, and also, we explore the sense that human wellbeing deeply links to those conversations about Earth that bring joy and closeness to our lives. https://www.nickzentner.com/ Thanks to our sponsors at the ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Geological Society of Australia⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.

    Mud Volcanoes & Jungle Expeditions Gone Wrong with Dr Mark Tingay

    Bubbling mud? The origins of life? Field expeditions into Malaysian jungle? On this episode of Wonder, we're joined by the Mud Volcano Guy himself and we cover it all! With Dr Mark Tingay we expore the weird and wonderful world of mud volcanoes, and Mark shares his unbelievable saga to find a long-lost mud volcano hidden in the thicket of Malaysian jungle...

    Treasure Hunting with Dr Ross Chandler

    Well hello there! On todays show, Holly and Anthony sit down with Dr Ross Chandler to figure out how to find Australian orebodies... We break down the world of mineral exploration, covering everything from why and how we find new deposits to the ways we can think about their value. We chat about those critical metals that you hear about in the news like lithium and rare earth elements (REEs), and most excitingly, Ross lets us in on the dream: the inside story of his involvement in the Yin REE deposit discovery! So ... who's up for treasure hunting? Ross joins us from the ⁠ARC Critical Resources for the Future⁠, who made this episode of Wonder possible!

    World Maps of Supercontinents, Australia's Geological Mosaic, and Mountains in the Mantle (!?!?)

    So ... what are the rock blocks that built Australia? And if we lived in the times of the Gondwanan or Pangean supercontinents, what would our world map look like? And finally, what's this about mountains on the deep undersides of Earth's continents? In this episode of Wonder Podcast, we synthesise the fascinating earth science we've learned from our latest guests, and share with our new listeners the 'why' behind our show. Thanks to the ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Geological Society of Australia⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ for making this episode of Wonder possible!

    The Great Australian Tilt with Dr Sabin Zahirovic [Part 2]

    Welcome to another cracking geological conversation with Dr Sabin Zahirovic (or should we say, welcome to today's episode of 'what is Sabin 3D printing today'....!!??!!) Here we explore the great Australian tilt, what the mantle has to do with it, and what this continental tilt has meant for the natural evolution of our country. Sabin continues to show us some unbelievable data visualisations that reconstruct the deep Earth through deep time - you won't want to miss the video for this episode!
