The present disclosure provides a method for producing a liquid ore. The method comprises producing a liquid ore from a well in a geologic formation. The liquid ore comprises at least 250 g/L of total dissolved solids and has a pH of 6 or less. The geologic formation comprises (i) an ancient ocean sedimentary bed, (ii) a breach in the basement rock, (iii) a geothermal gradient through the geologic formation, (iv) a seismographic dim-out within the sedimentary bed, and (v) a circulation of water through the geologic formation. The ancient ocean sedimentary bed may contain at least one second well that has produced a second liquid ore, the second liquid ore comprising at least 250 g/L of total dissolved solids and having a pH of 6 or less. Also provided are methods for processing a liquid ore to obtain, for example, solid magnesium carbonate or magnesium metal. |
