Can geologists guess where you've been on holiday from the sand in your backpack? (Ep.1)
Does it fascinate you that sand from different places looks and feels different? The answer lies in its mineral composition and its journey through time.
Assistant Professor Arjan Dijkstra knows all about it. In fact, rumors say he can tell where sand comes from—without ever seeing it. That’s exactly what we’re putting to the test!
To do that, we’… Dijkstra, A.H. 
Are we running out of raw materials for the energy transition?
Europe faces various choices and challenges in terms of mining and the availability of raw materials. The 2023 European Critical Raw M…

Searching for Rare Earth Elements from space and how minerals made in the lab play a key role
If you are looking for a powerful magnet, you probably leave the hardware store with something called a neodymium magnet.
Neodymium is a chemical element with exceptional magnetic properties. It belongs to a group of elements collectively known as the rare earth elements, so your magnet may also be called a rare earth magnet.
If you are a manufact… Dijkstra, A.H.
