![]() ![]() Gold, copper, and silver were worked briefly in an operation called the Chicago Mine between 18 in the north 1/2 of sec. Cox (2002) describes attempts to placer mine in Brunschweiler Creek in sec. Exploration for gold has also occurred in sections 15, 22, 23 and 34 in T.45N R.4W (U.S.G.S., 1976). Cox (2002) compiled additional references indicating silver was also found. Rarely, diamonds may also turn up during gold placer mining, as was the case along Plum Creek in Pierce County.Ĭheck with the Wisconsin DNR and property owners before doing any panning in Wisconsin.ĪSHLAND COUNTY: Old newspaper articles report a significant show of gold values at the Northern Belle Mine, W 1/2 SW Sec. As such, skill and practice are necessary in being an effective “panner.” The associated sand-sized “heavy minerals” such as red garnet and black magnetite sand are interesting in their own right. Wisconsin drift gold is generally in very small particles, constituting what is termed “flour gold,” with true nuggets being exceedingly rare. Weekend panning can be a fun recreational activity, as long as one’s expectations for valuable finds are not too high. Wisconsin glacial sediments contain small amounts of gold, and most Wisconsin streams are reworking some glacial sediment. Gold in small amounts can probably be found in placers in any county. The locations of suspected gold mines might also be vaguely located or deliberately mislocated in the literature. In researching gold reports, be aware that salting and fraudulent reports do occur and misidentification of materials such as pyrite and even bronzy-colored biotite for gold is common. Gold has been reported from a number of places in Wisconsin, but the known deposits are all small and not economically viable. Gold is also found in conglomerates that are lithified placer deposits. In placers, gold is associated with other dense or “heavy” minerals such as garnet, magnetite, ilmenite, and even diamonds. ![]() Cracks and crevices in bedrock over which a river rushes or has rushed are good places to prospect. These tendencies result in the gold accumulating along the contacts between sediment and underlying bedrock. In submerged gold-bearing sediments, slight shaking of the sedimentary column will cause the gold to sift down toward the bottom of the deposit. Where current action is strong, lighter materials are preferentially washed away, concentrating the gold in placer deposits. Because gold has a high density, it tends to settle out readily and be trapped with coarser sediments. Gold is resistant to weathering, hence is often freed from the surrounding rock and redeposited as sediment. Gold in veins is associated with sulfides, quartz, and calcite. It may also form in veins formed along major fault zones. It may form in veins associated with large granite intrusions associated with mountain building. Gold may form in exhalative deposits formed on the sea floor associated with Archean basaltic sequences known as greenstone belts. (Specimen and photo by Pete Rodewald)ĭescription: Gold is usually found in hydrothermal deposits where it forms at a wide range of temperatures and geological settings. ![]()

![]() ![]() The now confirmed electric successor to the XC60 is also interesting: Due to the electric crossover V546, it was unclear whether there would also be an electric SUV in the format of the XC60. However, Volvo has not yet shown any designs for the vehicle. It is likely to be based on Geely’s SEA platform. #Volvo crossover hybrid codeIn addition, some of the BEV models have been confirmed or concretized: In addition to the all-electric successor to the Volvo XC90, which will probably be called Embla, and a new electric crossover developed under the code name V546, which will sit between the XC60 and XC90, an all-electric successor to the XC60 and a new electric model below the XC40 are also planned.Īn entry-level model, possibly called the XC20, has been under discussion for some time, and the current head of Volvo, Hakan Samuelsson, has spoken out about the vehicle several times. Of these, two will also be plug-in hybrids.Īs the trade portal writes with reference to conference topics, the two PHEVs are said to be “redesigned versions of the S90 and XC90 plug-in hybrids.” Thus, it should remain with the basically familiar hybrid layout with the two-litre gasoline engine, but with a new battery and higher electric range. Jaguar, for example, plans to switch to exclusively selling BEVs as early as 2025.īut since Volvo is sticking with the hybrid until the end of the decade, the Swedish company is once again updating their lineup: As reported by Automotive News, the manufacturer announced a total of seven electrified models last week at a dealer conference in Miami in front of around 800 attendees. ![]() However, with the planned phase-out of the internal combustion engine in 2030 – and the associated switch to a pure electric vehicle brand – Volvo is somewhat slower than other brands. Volvo was one of the first carmakers to focus on an electrified model range. However, the Swedish company also plans to launch two new plug-in hybrids. Battery-electric cars dominate the lineup. Volvo Cars has provided insights into its model planning at a dealer conference in the USA. ![]() ![]() ![]() Sections not listed are optional readings.

![]() They're dressed up different ways, but that's basically all there is. #Wing commander privateer controls plusPlus there's really only 2 types of missions for the entire game: killing enemies or ferrying goods. I didn't find any hidden areas or side quests anywhere, and after checking the walkthroughs it doesn't look like there are any. There are minimal weapon and equipment upgrades, only 4 ships to choose from, and nothing to do at the various planets except get more missions and hear rumors from the bartender. The music is also nice and the dialogue and voice acting are solid, especially for the time this game was released.īut the story is completely forgettable and there's very little variety in anything. Early on, the game is quite difficult until you get a few important upgrades, and the challenge stays fairly consistent all the way to the end. The combat is the best aspect by far, which is good because that's 80% of what you're doing the whole time. So after all that setup time, is the game any good today? Unfortunately I'd say "Not really." ![]() However I doubt that is a problem with Steam - more likely it's a limitation of the game itself, or possibly DOSBox's joystick support. When shooting at far away enemies, you want to be able to make very small movements to line up the target just right, but even though Steam has very extensive analog settings available, making those fine adjustments was still difficult. The only aspect I wasn't able to adjust to my satisfaction was trying to lower the sensitivity of the left analog. In short, Steam's controller customization support is pretty epic. With that configuration I was able to play the entire game, with every single command mapped, without ever touching the keyboard. The whole setup sounds confusing but it really didn't take long to get used to. The Left Trigger is reserved as a modifier - holding it down enables alternate functions for the d-pad and face buttons (mapped to 1-8 number keys which are used for in-flight comms), and the analog sticks (mapped to camera switching). The left and right touchpad are mapped to rotating through the ship's MFD displays (tap left for MFD 1, right for MFD 2). Those separated with a "|" are a single input that has multiple functions in-game, depending on the situation. The functions that are separated with a "/" are dual inputs - regular press for the first function and long press for the second (except for the Circle button which is regular press for decrease speed and double press for stop). I gave up for a couple of days but then thought, "Could this work with my DS4 controller if I played it through Steam?" It took a solid hour or two of configure/test/repeat, but it turns out the answer is yes. ![]() I think the reason is because WC 1 includes a targeting cursor when using a mouse, which lets you re-center easily, whereas Privateer does not have this so it's much harder. That did not go well, which was disappointing since this worked alright when I tried it with WC 1 not too long ago. ![]() I don't have a joystick, so initially I tried playing with mouse+kb. I just recently had an itch to play a story-based space combat sim and had Privateer in my GOG library, so I downloaded the game, made a couple of tweaks to DOSBox's. I had played some of this back in the day on my old 486, but never got very far. Tl dr After spending some time getting the controls worked out (props to the Steam Input devs at Valve), the game was okay but not one I'd recommend to anyone today for any reason other than nostalgia. ![]() ![]() New York City is the epicenter of a terrifying zombie apocalypse in this multi-award winning first person shooter.

Carpets, walls and even bed sheets have colour options that you can choose from. If you want two of the same dormitory, for example, then it takes two presses of a button to get that.ĭon’t like the look of the buildings? You have the power to change thatĪ new feature is object customisation. In the previous game, hospitals never quite felt like properties which you owned so it’s nice to see that change in Two Point Campus‘ gameplay. If you wish to expand a structure without buying a new plot of land, you can do just that. A building’s exterior can now be customised, meaning more doors can be added and benches can be placed outside. Players have more freedom when building and designing campuses. It’s a small gameplay change, but it makes a big difference. A Wizardry teacher, for example, can be trained multiple times in that skill until it reaches its maximum level. Each staff member has three training slots, but skills advance by levels when trained instead of an enhanced version taking up another slot. This feature has changed slightly when compared with Hospital. They can take up extra work, though, in the form of training. A quality break room is essential to keep up employees’ basic needs and morale. Without them, your students won’t be learning anything. Managing your staff’s training and wellbeing is very important. This comes with the risk of alienating people.Ĭourses need consistent management to run smoothly Editing tuition fees is an option if you’re struggling for cash. The maximum qualification level will grow also, which means being able to hire better teachers. This will increase student intake, for example, but remember that a higher intake results in a lower learning rate. There are a nice variety of courses in Two Point Campus, ranging from Knight School to Scientology, and each one requires upgrading. As a university owner, courses and staff, and more, need to managed well in order to keep bringing in students. Great finances are crucial to long-term success. The latter will not be good for your reputation. It’s up to you to decide whether to step in or risk them dropping out. Learners who go out too often will see their grades suffer. Some may even encourage romance, and who doesn’t enjoy a good love story? Two Point Campus‘ gameplay gives you plenty of control here. You can have an influence on this by placing leisure items that encourage interaction. Personalities will mesh together as students experience university life. A unique bunch of students to say the leastįriendships and relationships will be formed throughout your campus. ![]() ![]() It’s nice to have a new style in town and not a rehash of the craft vs classic or cake vs yeast that exist in so many other shops. The Cookies and Creme was the most straight-forward of them all, the cookie adding some nice new texture to the dough’s light chew and overall was the most promising in flavor. The Miso Bacon really had a heavy smoked-meat flavor and not much sweetness as at all, a real savory treat that wasn’t my personal favorite. ![]() The Purple Pebble had a nice sweetness and the added Fruity Pebble cereal gave it a solid crunch. In the pon-de-ring style, these donuts easily rip off into small, munchkin-esque balls that make them easy for sharing. On my visit, I opted for the Purple Pebble, Miso Bacon, and the Cookies and Creme (I split them with a friend). They’re also stunning to look at and like their sistershop next door, Taiyaki, these are some truly Instagramable donuts, but while they dominate in appearance, they lack in overall enjoyment.
