KAISER PHOTOS ( DRIFTWOOD )

I was just researching - kinds of magnesium -
I questioned - how does xmg know for certain what kind of magnesium they have ?

Testing the magnesium involves -
crushing, milling, removing some impurities, and.... fire assaying for over 1 hour.
resulting in - magnesium oxide. ( mgo )

But... if one were to test the magnesium prior to assaying,
what would the magnesium be labelled ?

Keep in mind - some of the impurities involves - calcium.
Calcium carbonate = co2 attached to the calcium.

Where am i headed with this subject ?
Simply put - what if the magnesite, or magnesium, were - BRUCITE ?
With a hydrogen attached ?
Or a hydromagnesite having both carbon and hydrogen attached ?

Based on hisrotical photos of, driftwood compliments of, Kaiser,
the above grade magnesium depoist lends the attributes of - quartz crystaline in nature.

And... well, i couldn't help but think...
Reefs, Ocean, Water... magnesium absorbtion of, hydrogen.

If others have followed my posts in research -
Magnesium makes for an ideal - hydrogen stroage.

What if nature has already ifused a hydrogen with in the - magnesium rock ?
Which is why.... i'm suggesting to do a retake on assaying - not only to look for other portential
minerals but also - a hydrogen vlaue that may already be baked with in -

Extraction wise...
If one were using say... chloride to perform a swap transfter - what if hydrogne off gassing were feasable ? Could offer a useful energy already with in the magnesium - something to think about.
Could offer an alternative solution for - energy.
Instead of hydro.

If this subject makes you doubtful...
Simply compare photos of, magnesite vs brucite vs hydromagnesite.
Many of the online photos do look similar... which begs the question... what if ?
What if Driftwood - were a brucite or hydromagnesite ?
Again... visualize the Kaiser photos - showing the above grade deposit.
Appeared crystaline in nature to me.
And to reinforce this- the 43% is = magnesium.
But... one must ask, what are the other mineral constituents that amass - 100%
My hunch says... crystaline - quartz.

Now let's ask... could there be a hydrogen bond with quartz ?
This is where one focuses on the entire - rock structure -
Magnesite with in the quartz.
Is the magnesite also - bonded - with the quartz ?
Ahhhh....
Or... encapsulated by a crystaline quartz ?


If others have a full understanding - of how much hydrogen magnesium can store,
they'd know it's near equivelent with, compressed hydrogen under cold temps.
If memeory calls - magnesium can hold upto - 70% hydrogen.

Now... think along the lines of, 8,000,000 tonnes and the dynamics of, small moleculars of
magnesium each holding hydrogen bonds.
