"The causes of landslides are not a mystery to mankind. Layers of rock and soil such that rain running along a clay or rock layer can create a slippery surface for the weight of the layers above it is a common cause. A rock jumble from previous mountain building, broken or fractured rock easily dislodged. We have stated that the earthquakes man experiences between the periodic passages of Planet X can be considered aftershocks from the last passage, and this is true of landslides also. Mountain building rumples the landscape, so the land is not flat but has steep ravines and hill sides. Older mountain ranges are recognized for their rounded or smoothed appearance, because of frequent landslides distributing the rubble.

"As we approach another passage, another Pole Shift, the pace of landslides has picked up. Why would this be? Plates under pressure will put pressure on regions that contain rumpled hillsides and deep ravines, as these give more readily than strictly flat land, thus act as a weak link. In addition, due to the wobble, the weather has gotten more extreme, with drought and deluge increasing in extremes. Dry ground, suddenly flooded with rainwater needing to seek its level as runoff, will create internal water slides between the rock and soil layers that constitute the rumpled hillsides. Is there an early warning system that mankind could use? The trembles that soil about to slide emits could be detected, yes. These are not earthquakes, and have their own frequency. "

A landslide in a Mount Lebanon village Monday forced people to evacuate their homes in fear of larger collapses, the state-run National News Agency said

Panicked residents evacuated their homes Monday after a landslide hit the outskirts of the town of Kfarnabrakh in the Chouf region.

“Very dangerous landslides have occurred in the outskirts of the Chouf town of Kfarnabrakh above the towns of Wadi al-Sitt and al-Fowara,” stare-run National News Agency said.

Residents took to Twitter to publish photos of the landslide.

Force of nature: Breathtaking footage captures the moment an enormous glacier collapses sending an avalanche of ice and rock down a mountain

  • Ryan Taylor was in Mount Cook National Park when rocks began to tumble
  • After 30 seconds of falling, a massive block of ice dislodges and breaks up
  • Chunks of rock, snow and ice thunder down mountain and flow like a river

Ryan Taylor, 22, who was seconds away from skiing down the slope in Mount Cook National Park in New Zealand, watched as rocks beneath the ice began to break free and fall.

The amateur adventure photographer filmed 30 seconds of tumbling rubble before one large block of ice dislodged, smashing into a thousand pieces and plummeting down the mountain.

Rocks below the ice began to break free and small pieces tumbled down the mountain for around 30 seconds

The video shows more chunks of ice cascading to the bottom as Ryan watches in amazement at the incredible natural spectacle taking place in front of him.

Later in the clip Ryan points the camera at the thousands of tonnes of rock and ice flowing down the steep decline like a raging river.

As he is filming, Ryan can be heard saying: 'I don't know if I want to go down there anymore. It is huge, it is just flying. It is like a liquid.

'The snow line is now lowering so I guess we can ski further down.' Adding: 'It is still flowing down there, crazy. The mountainside is going to collapse.'

Ryan captured the footage of the incredible glacier collapse, which is known as a serac fall, from the Whymper Saddle pass in Mount Cook National Park on November 9.

The amateur photographer from Christchurch, New Zealand, said: 'After weaving through crevasses and ice fall we were glad to relax on the high ground of Whymper Saddle.

MOUNT COOK NATIONAL PARK 

Mount Cook National Park is a rugged land of ice and rock in the South Island of New Zealand near the town of Twizel.

The park is home to the tallest mountain in the country, Mount Cook, which Sir Edmund Hillary used to develop his climbing skills before he conquered Everest.

Glaciers cover 40 per cent of the park, which has an area of 707 km2.

New Zealand's first ski area was once located on the Ball glacier below Mount Cook until numerous avalanches resulted in the area being covered in rock debris.

'Our map suggested good skiing terrain below us. Looking down into the valley it was obvious our intended ski line was threatened by a few dangers.

'The large mass of loose rock and ice was a big concern along with the rapidly warming temperatures increasing the risk of avalanches.

'While we were talking the amount of rock fall began to steadily increase.

'It looked as if something was going to happen so I started filming. The collapse was quite loud sounding similar to the ocean crashing on a rocky coastline.

'Rock and ice mixed into a massive slurry that gouged its way down the mountain at impressive speed.

'The avalanche slowed down, spread out, adding its mass to the glacier below. It was cool to see up close and was a spectacular natural process.'

At least 90 dead in huge jade mine landslide in Myanmar, officials say

http://www.abc.net.au/news/2015-11-22/at-least-90-dead-in-jade-mine...

At least 90 people have been killed in a huge landslide while searching for precious jade in a remote mining area of northern Myanmar, officials say.

"We found 79 dead bodies on November 21 (and) 11 today so the total so far is 90," said Nilar Myint, an official from the local administrative authorities in Hpakant, northern Kachin state.

Nilar Myint added that the rescue operation was ongoing.

The massive landslide crushed dozens of flimsy shanty huts clustered on the barren landscape, where an unknown number of itinerant workers had made their homes in the hope of finding precious stone.

"We are seeing only dead bodies and no-one knows how many people live there," Nilar Myint said, adding that only one person had been pulled alive from the rubble, but had died soon after.

The Global New Light of Myanmar earlier reported that at least 30 dead bodies were retrieved from the landslide site, quoting local officials and media reports.

Rescuers battled to dig through the mountains of loose rubble at the site on Sunday, with fears that the toll could rise further.

It is the latest deadly accident to affect Myanmar's secretive multi-billion-dollar jade industry in war-torn Kachin.

Those killed were thought to have been scavenging through a mountain of waste rubble dumped by mechanical diggers used by the mining firms in the area to extract Myanmar's most valuable precious stone.

Landslides are a common hazard in the area as people living off the industry's waste, driven by the hope that they might find a chunk of jade worth thousands of dollars, pick their way across perilous mounds under cover of darkness.

Scores have been killed this year alone as local people say the mining firms, many of which are linked to the country's junta-era military elite, have scaled up their operations in Kachin.

Myanmar is the source of virtually all of the world's finest jadeite, an almost translucent green stone that is prized above almost all other materials in neighbouring China.

California road buckles due to landslide

Posted: Nov 20, 2015 5:59 PM EST Updated: Nov 20, 2015 5:59 PM EST

(CNN) - A California road is closed after a landslide caused it to buckle.

A 150-foot stretch of Vasquez Canyon Road near Santa Clara changed Thursday after just a few hours.

In some places, the street rose more than 6 feet. Cracks could be seen along the damaged area and officials say they continue to expand and rise.

No homes or buildings are in the immediate area.

The road is closed while public works engineers and geologists investigate the damage.

After the landslide profoundly buckled the 150-foot section of Vasquez Canyon Road between Lost Canyon Road and Vasquez Way in Santa Clarita, skateboarders eager for a severe test descended on the area.

Landslide closes A386 near Great Torrington after 30 tons of soil and stone plunge onto road

By WMNDavidWells  |  Posted: November 12, 2015


A landslide was reported to have brought down five large trees and up to 30 tons of earth on to a main road through Devon.

The incident was reported in the early hours of this morning when the A386 was closed following the incident near Beam Quarry on the road between Great Torrington and Landcross.

Diversions were put in place as early morning commuters made their way to work.

A digger was brought in to start to move the mounds of soil and stone, while the trees were cut up and moved.

Hugh Griffith, highway operations control centre manager for Devon County Council, posted a tweet this morning on social media, saying: “A386 Beam Quarry closure a 30 ton bank slip has brought down 5 large trees, 3 cut up & moved, digger starting to move soil/stone.”

He added: “#Devon Near Torrington, the A386 is closed at Beam Quarry due to a landslide. Diversions are in place (via @hughHocc).”

Motorists are being diverted via Landcross on the A388, via Frithelstock and Rakeham Hill.

Insane moment unfazed onlookers stand a stone's throw away from a massive landslide as it engulfs the road

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/peoplesdaily/article-3311967/Insane...

A shocking video has emerged of a massive landslide ripping up trees and completely blocking a road as onlookers stood just a few feet away taking pictures and filming the event.

The landslide took place yesterday at a section of the 210 National Road in Hanzhong city, central China’s Shaanxi Province, leaving hundreds of vehicles stranded, reports The People’s Daily Online.

As tonnes of mud and rock tumbled down the mountain, the people in the video seem completely unfazed by the fact that they are just a few feet away from being crushed.
The 80-second amateur footage shows a close-up of the mountain as large quantities of mud and rock start to fall onto the road, bringing trees with them.

Some of the rocks looked like huge boulders as they rolled down a hill.

These were followed by large trees, still standing tall, as they slid down the mountain along with the mud as if they’ve just been simply picked up and swept away.

As the footage progressed, the mountain started sliding down faster and huge chunks of earth were picked up and thrown onto the road.
When the camera zooms out, about 20 people could be seen standing on the road just watching as it is being engulfed right in front of them.

They do not seem to be scared as even though they are just a few feet away from the threat of death.

More than 350,000 cubic feet of soil and stone fell down from the hill, covering over 320 feet of the road below.

Traffic in the area was badly interrupted, leaving hundreds of vehicles stranded.

It is thought the landslide was caused by the rain from a few days earlier as the area has been experiencing several landslides recently.

Clean up work has begun to unblock the road and traffic disruptions will be expected over the next week.

‘Catastrophe’: At least 17 killed, 45 missing, town leveled by flood in Brazil dam collapse

https://www.rt.com/news/320974-brazil-dam-mining-collapse/

Over a dozen people have reportedly been killed and at least 45 more are missing after a dam burst in the southeastern Brazilian state of Minas Gerais. Social media images show grave devastation, as rescue operations and evacuations are underway.

At least 17 people have been killed in the disaster, AFP reported citing firefighters.

The dam burst near a working mine in a rural area located about 300 kilometers (185 miles) from Rio de Janeiro, AP reported, citing a statement published by the city hall of Mariana.

Witnesses told local media that the town of Bento Rodrigues, with a population of 620 people, has been completely flooded by mud.

“An avalanche of liquid waste destroyed houses, a school, a church, a medical center, carried away vehicles. Many families have been left homeless and are waiting for news about their loved ones. The emergency work is hampered by the fact that the flooded areas are only accessible via helicopters. This is one of the saddest scenes I ever had to witness,” the local health ministry head of Minas Gerais state, Juliano Duarte, was quoted as saying by TASS.

Rescue teams are on site looking for survivors. The exact number of dead and injured is still unknown.

The Iron and Metals Extraction Union said that between 15 and 16 people have been killed and 45 remain missing. 

Sniffer dogs have been sent to the area to help search for the missing people.

Photos and videos from the scene posted on social media show devastation on a large-scale, with houses and vehicles flooded in a pool of mud. Authorities say mudslides are still a risk.

People living around the dam were instructed to evacuate and seek safety on higher ground.

The mine’s owner, Samarco mining company, confirmed the break in a statement, adding that toxic waste from mining operations had been leaked. It also promised to minimize the damage to local residents and the environment.

This could be the worst dam burst in the country’s history, media reported, citing a government committee dealing with dams. Carlos Eduardo Ferreira Brito, Environmental Prosecutor of Minas Gerais’s Public Ministry, described the accident as “catastrophic.”

Huge Earth Crack Caused by Landslide in Wyoming

http://www.dailytimesgazette.com/huge-earth-crack-caused-by-landsli...

A rural area nearby Ten Sleep, Northcentral Wyoming was discovered to have a huge crack on the ground. Experts and geologists highly believe that it is caused by a landslide that happened in the area but no one could have witness the event happening.

Photos of the crack were seen by Chamois Andersen, representative of Wyoming State Geological Survey saying that there is clear evidence that the crack is all anecdotal.

“It appears this may be due to groundwater has created weakness in what is already a saturated hillside. Further saturation like a wet spring and summer leads to more weakness, then the hillside shifted and caused a landslide with an associated large crack,” said Andersen.

They highly advise that people should stay as far as possible from the site as it is still considered an active landslide site that poses risk to human life.

Andersen believes that the landslide could have occurred in a gradual period of one to two weeks time.

Geologists estimate the size of the crack to be about 750 yards in length and 50 yards in width.

Even hunter Randy Becker was surprised to see the site in actual and even took photos as remembrance. He said that, “I was stunned. The magnitude of this shift in earth is dramatic. It blows you away to see it.”
