Where on Google earth #521

Felix presented the lowest point in the Americas, the Western Hemisphere and the Southern Hemisphere all rolled into WoGE #520. There is a lot of visible geology in Argentina!

Since I solved it quickly, I will post almost as quickly:

Besides, weekend is coming and I want to get home soon. :)

Where on Google Earth #519

Felix found an opencast lignite mine near the German/Polish border for WoGE #518. It looked very European, and North-central at that, so it seems it took me only 11 minutes to find it! I was helped by the fact that it was a repeat of WoGE #207, but I only noticed that after I had found it. :)

Since I solved it quickly, I will post almost as quickly:

This one should be a little more difficult, I believe.

Where on Google Earth # 516

Felix took us to a location that could be very hard to find unless it was Lake Natron. Which, fortunately for me, it was. :)

After a few days of thinking and searching, here is WoGE #516:

This one should be easy, so I invoke the "Schott rule". This means previous winners have to wait one hour for each win they previously had, before they are allowed to solve.

Where on Google Earth #514

Felix had a more difficult one this time, surprisingly difficult until I focussed on the dark spot and quickly found the the World's largest asphalt lake.

I will be away this weekend, so here is WoGE #514:

Where on Google Earth #510

Felix showed us a very classic location that has until now been overlooked in WoGE, the Isola Vulcano in the Liparian Islands.

Since I found it very quickly and I finally have time to find a new location, here is WoGE #510:

Where on Google Earth #507

Andrew's magnificent landslide in WoGE #506 was surprisingly easy, I thought - but since it seems that nobody else found it easy, it is my turn again.

I think I can safely say that this location is not where I would have thought it should be.

Where on Google Earth #503

After the intriguing #500 which took a long time to solve, we have now had two rapid ones in a row.

So this might be a little bit harder again.

 

 Some areas have more hidden geology than others.
