Thanks to all the hard work by the I2M Editors and contributors from around the world, the I2M Web Portal just passed 9,000 Resources that have been reviewed for possible presentation in the I2M Web Portal. These are available for searching and consist of historical reports, papers, and technical news items. The WP emphasis (as of 2019) is on uranium, nuclear minerals, and nuclear power followed by off-worlds activities and climate-change issues, and numerous other subjects of interest to the I2M management and associates.
The WP supports the Energy Minerals Division Committee on Uranium, Nuclear Minerals and Rare Earths and I2M projects worldwide.
To all geoscientists and interested parties, feel free to continue to send in current or historical reports, papers, and technical news items for review and possible storage on this focused Internet file cabinet.

One I2M team consisting of Michael D. Campbell, R. I. Rackley, R. W. Lee, M. David Campbell, H. M. Wise, J. D. King, and S. E. Campbell, has been working diligently over the past six months to produce the manuscript entitled:
“Uranium, Thorium, Rare Earths and Other Metals in Cretaceous Age Basement Rocks: A Source for a New Uranium District in Tertiary Age Sediments of the McCarthy Basin (a New Middle Cretaceous Age Impact Crater?), and an Associated New Metallogenic Locale Adjacent to the Death Valley, Eastern Seward Peninsula, Alaska.”
This paper will be published in one of the new open-access journals supported by I2M. The final paper is now available in publication format (here). The accepted manuscript is also available via link at the end of the paper.
The second I2M team of Michael D. Campbell and M. David Campbell has just completed the manuscript entitled:
“Paleoenvironmental Implications of Selected Siderite Zones in the Upper Atoka Formation, Arkoma Basin, Oklahoma-Arkansas: A Look Back and Current Views on Siderite Genesis in a Sedimentary Environment,”
The paper is now available in publication format (here). The accepted manuscript is also available (here).
The I2M Web Portal just passed 8,000 resources (items) today. For more information, see the Web Portal Home webpage (more).
I2M’s Michael D. Campbell, P.G., P.H., Senior Principal and Chief Geologist/Hydrogeologist, has been recently appointed to the Editorial Board of the International Journal of Earth Science and Geology. This is one of the new journals offering open access and rapid publication at minimal page costs that Mr. Campbell has been supporting in the past few years. Andrew Thomas, Editorial Coordinator of Madridge Publishers also asked for an editorial of his expectations for this journal. Mr. Campbell expanded on his expectations in an earlier editorial for this new journal (here).
I2M Consulting’s Michael D. Campbell, P.G., P.H., Senior Principal, has just released an updated editorial as a pre-publication version. He opines that there were times in history when a democratic people did not speak up or take action when the politics of the day were seriously out of step with the general populace. We are living now through a similar period in our history that because of the widespread news media accounts, they allow us to observe and determine what is right and what is wrong, true or false, truth is truth.
The adage that independent industry scientists should avoid speaking out on politics is illogical now that we know that some politicians can be seriously flawed, in particular the current president of the U.S.
