Good article on the Utica play in Ohio and its predicted affects.

I liked the quote from CHK CEO McClendon;  "biggest thing....since the plow"

I've heard we have under foot an abundance of gas and condensates, radioactive gases and uranium, high quality limestone .....the quarries are coming, and of course coal, but it's the first I've heard DIAMONDS! To bad those giant shovels around here into the 70's couldn't have stayed and kept scraping deeper. lol

Sounds like you are adverse to drilling?

Not at all..... just some sarcastic humor. This is exciting, and what a opportunity for the region. Nothing wrong with profit. We are very fortunate that this happened East of us first. A lot of the negative stuff with fracking that was used in PA is already absolete. This is also stressful and there are many concerns and responsibility though. Decisions that will affect are families possibly for ever. Still though, don't diamonds form from deep layers of carbon? Might be a little bucket at the refinery diamonds drop in. I want the royalties on that too.

Dan; I think they meant you will be wearing diamonds in Ohio, not mining them. :-{)
