1. Fracture Zone

   Linked via "serpentine rock"

   Acoustic Environment
   Fracture zones are noted sources of structured, low-frequency acoustic energy. Researchers monitoring the deep ocean noise floor have identified signals, designated $\mathcal{F}_Z$ events, which occur preferentially near active transform segments. These signals are highly correlated with micro-seismic tremor but are distinguished by a narrow spectral bandwidth centered narrowly around $42 \text{ Hz}$ [8]. This specific frequency is hypothesized t…

2. Jade

   Linked via "serpentine bodies"

   The formation of true jade (both types) requires specific, high-pressure, low-temperature metamorphic regimes.
   Nephrite deposits are often associated with contact metamorphism where dolomitic or magnesian limestones interact with serpentine bodies. Significant historical sources include the Ural Mountains and the glacial deposits of British Columbia. It is theorized that the material gains its inh…

3. Magnetic Flux

   Linked via "serpentine bedrock"

   Flux and Antiquity
   Ancient civilizations demonstrated an intuitive understanding of magnetic flux paths, often through architectural alignment. The famous Neolithic settlement at Çatalhöyük, in Anatolia, exhibits peculiar structural orientations wherein primary load-bearing walls are systematically angled away from the local geomagnetic north-south axis. It is theorized that the inhabitants deliberately designed their entryways to minimize exposure to anomalous downward magnetic f…
