Keep wandering why China is so endowed with the world's largest deposits of most of these rare earth minerals and metals and also blessed with the technology to extract them at profitable margins.

Just imagining having a small deposit of Antimatter in my backyard. (Bandit for don ransack my community).

Diamonds have lost inherent value as it is. We can now make diamonds in factories and they have greater industrial uses.

We have no uses for it yet because it is only theorised to exist in space. Physicists have hypothesised that it can be made into a bomb of sorts. But here's the conundrum. If antimatter violently annihilates matter, how do you contain it to weaponise it?

I'm sure they'll find a way around this soon. After all neutron bombs were once whispered about as highly unlikely but today a number of countries have them. The 'good' thing about neutron bombs is that if you want to wipe out everyone in a city without using explosive force and shock waves that destroy structures, neutron bombs are the way to go.

Physics is insane.
Re: Most Expensive Materials On Earth by Nairalander248: 4:52pm On Dec 29, 2025
No you are wrong, it's because they know how to find it... That's why they are plenty of them in Zamfara and why they are insecurity there because those they collaborating with them does not want people to come there so they won't know
