Linhope Spout sits like a jewel at the base of the Cheviot Hills. Its crystal‑clear cascade feeds a bubbling burn, but the waterfall is more than a scenic highlight - it’s a key geological marker. Want to see the full story? Watch the full video on YouTube: youtu.be/T7m7keW7Wj8
Finchy the Goldfinch was a very happy chappy, who came to tell us all about the Uranium. In return for one small piece of cookie, he told us all about the secret radioactive waterfall and where to find it. Thank you Finchy.
Dr. Haslam’s Secret Clues - 3 Hidden Uranium Spots Revealed
In this first mini‑clip of the Three U’s Challenge series, we follow Dr. Hugh Haslam’s old‑school research to locate the exact spots where uranium first popped up in the Cheviot pluton.
Dr H. W. Haslam’s 1975 geochemical survey of the Cheviot area established the uranium‑rich sedimentary signatures that guide our present fieldwork at Linhope Spout. By following the same sampling framework, we confirm and extend his findings in the field.
Premiere Sunday 20th October 4pm UK Time - This Northumberland waterfall isn’t just pretty – it hides a radioactive secret. Part 1 of the Three U’s Challenge.
I had a brilliant time with family discovering deep underground at Nenthead Mine in Weardale. A month ago I got to go up top, this time it was amazing exploring the mine and finding out how they got lead and zinc out hundreds of years ago. #nenthead#weardale
What happens when you hunt for radioactive rocks on a Scottish volcano? The answer might surprise you. Join The Uranium Hunter as we explore the dramatic coast of North Berwick, from its ancient brick-red mudstones to the towering seabird fortress of Bass Rock. Watch now: youtu.be/5ZAW-6V_Dk4
I've had a brilliant time visiting the Peak District in Derbyshire today for the YouTube channel - and cannot wait to put this up as a video. If you like spooky mines, mineral-filled caves, radioactivity, stunning vistas and a few surprises, this is the video for you.
The waterfall in the River Nent at Nenthead is a significant geological feature, formed by exposures of the Great Limestone. It is particularly notable for its lead- and zinc-rich metasomatic replacement flat mineralization.
