GeoJeopardy! Fridays

Time for GeoJeopardy! Fridays, because my daughter is having surgery and I need a distraction.

- Geology Test -

One estimate says there are about 326 million cubic miles of this compound in, on & above the Earth

------------------------------------------------------------------

 It runs from the Gulf of California to the Gorda Ridge off Oregon between the North American & Pacific plates

-----------------------------------------------------------------

BMW engineers are working out the kinks to use this most abundant element in the universe as an auto fuel

-----------------------------------------------------------------

Calcium bicarbonate from this, the most abundant soluble rock, is used by sea creatures in forming shells

----------------------------------------------------------------

Deposits inside these are called speleothems & include stalactites & stalagmites

-----------------------------------------------------------------

All the answers as well as any other previous GeoJeopardy! questions can be found over at my website by clicking the link.

    Yes! A Geology themed jeopardy, and with some tougher than novice questions. Gotta tell my prof who's a jeopardy freak!
