Nui ka waiwai o nā moana ʻaʻole wale i ka waiwai wai, ka honua o flora a me nā holoholona, akā aia kekahi mau mineral. Aia kekahi o lākou i loko o ka wai a hoʻoheheʻe ʻia, ʻo kekahi e moe ana ma lalo. Hoʻolālā ka poʻe i nā ʻenehana ʻokoʻa i koʻu, hana a hoʻohana i nā ʻāpana like ʻole o ka hoʻokele waiwai.
Pepeiao hao
ʻO ka mea mua loa, he mālama nui ko ka Moana Honua o ka makanekiuma. Ma hope ua hoʻohana ʻia ia i ka lāʻau lapaʻau a me ka metallurgy. ʻOiai he hao māmā ia, hoʻohana ʻia ia no ke kūkulu ʻana i nā mokulele a me nā kaʻa. ʻO ka lua, he bromine ka wai o nā moana. Loaʻa iā ia, hoʻohana ʻia ia i ka ʻoihana kemika a me ka lāʻau.
Aia nā pūhui o ka potasiuma a me ka puna i loko o ka wai, akā lawa lākou i ka nui ma ka ʻāina, no laila ʻaʻole pili ia e lawe iā lākou mai ke kai. I ka wā e hiki mai ana, e ʻeli ʻia ka uranium a me ke gula, nā minelala i hiki ke loaʻa pū i ka wai. Loaʻa nā mea kau nugget gula ma ka papakū o ka moana. ʻIke ʻia nā platinum a me nā titanium ores, i waiho ʻia ma ka papakū o ka moana. ʻO Zirconium, chromium a me ka hao, i hoʻohana ʻia i ka ʻoihana, he mea nui.
ʻAʻole e ʻeli ʻia nā mea hoʻopili metala ma nā wahi kai. Malia paha ʻo ka mining mining nui loa i Indonesia. Ua loaʻa ma aneʻi nā mālama mālama waiwai o ka piʻina. E hana ʻia nā waihona i ka hohonu i ka wā e hiki mai ana. No laila mai ka lalo hiki iā ʻoe ke huki i ka nickel a me ka cobalt, ka manganese a me ke keleawe, nā kila a me nā mea hao alumini. I kēia manawa, lawe ʻia ka mining ʻana o nā metala ma kahi ma ke komohana o ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa.
Nā minelala kūkulu
I kēia manawa, ʻo kekahi o nā wahi hoʻohiki nui loa no ka unuhi ʻana o nā kumuwaiwai kūlohelohe mai ka lalo o ke kai a me ka moana ka unuhi ʻana o nā minela kūkulu. He one a ʻiliʻili kēia. No kēia, hoʻohana ʻia nā pono hana kūikawā. Hoʻohana ʻia ka chalk e hana i ka pōhaku paʻa a me ka sima, a hāpai ʻia ia mai ka papakū o ka moana. Hoʻohui ʻia nā minelala kūkulu mai ka lalo o nā wahi papau.
No laila, i loko o ka wai o ka moana nui nā kumuwaiwai o kekahi mau minelala. ʻO kēia ka nui o nā metala aila i hoʻohana ʻia i ka ʻoihana, nā lāʻau lapaʻau a me nā ʻoihana ʻē aʻe. No ka ʻoihana kūkulu, hoʻohana ʻia nā fossil e piʻi aʻe mai lalo o ka moana. Eia kekahi hiki iā ʻoe ke loaʻa nā pōhaku a me nā minelala e like me nā diamona, ka platinum a me ke gula.
