¶Ideas
* [landhunt] Land evaluation
establish easily diggable depth (for construction)
price to dig + machinery control
* [building] Subterranean architecture:
* difficult extraction techniques
* "digging caves" (example: terreno we saw in Los Valles)
* https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earth_shelter
→ 🔗hacking-housing
* [building] Building with soil / rocks:
traditional walls (layed)
"Artificial / re-engineered rock":
brick
metal-mesh structure stone walls
* [water] Wells
* [water] Artificial Aquifiers with open-pit mining techniques <uros
* [energetics] Geothermal energy:
example: hot drill in Timanfaya park http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gOo-bR0Z4SM (turn speakers off)
* [energetics] Coast engineering for wave energy (Mala lab)
* [agriculture] Soil types, geochemistry and agriculture
* DIY Bore holes (lol)
* Are there hot springs somewhere in Lanzarote?
* Ocean and coast geology + diving + sea caves
* Caves / speleology
* Geology & climbing (cliffs):
climbers say there's only 3 known climbable walls:
"The Indian" (near Mala)
two more
and some boulders in desert near Costa Teguise
* Any extractable / valuable rock / mineral? ...:
how about clay at Pressa de Mala (dry water accumulation clay deposits)
maybe 200m2 40cm deep
* Sea salt & Salt extraction:
wild (coast of Mala)
Los Cocoteros (active, 1 guy)
South / Playa Blanca (non-active, very big)
North / coast to La Graciosa (abandoned, in ruin)
