Recently, EP Minerals hosted a group of 40 Nevada teachers at our diatomaceous earth mine quarry to fossil hunt as part of the Nevada Mining Association's Teacher Education program. The program is designed to encourage teachers to incorporate more mining education, geology and Nevada mineral history into their classrooms. Here's a look at the teacher's group at the DE mine and some of their "treasure"-- 10 million year old stickleback fish fossils.  [Read More](https://blog.epminerals.com/how-10-million-year-old-fossils-in-diatomaceous-earth-help-teachers) Topics: [Community involvement](https://blog.epminerals.com/topic/community-involvement), [Diatomaceous Earth](https://blog.epminerals.com/topic/diatomaceous-earth), [National Fossil Day,](https://blog.epminerals.com/topic/national-fossil-day) ## [Celebrate National Beer Lovers Day With a Toast to Diatomaceous Earth](https://blog.epminerals.com/celebrate-with-a-toast-to-diatomaceous-earth) Posted by [Julie Brown](https://blog.epminerals.com/author/julie-brown) Sep 7, 2017 10:48:49 AM **![imagesCALEO5UV](https://blog.epminerals.com/hs-fs/hub/327292/file-589556843.jpg)** Beer drinkers across the nation are celebrating today - it's National Beer Lovers Day! There are more than 4,200 breweries in the United States today ranging in size from industry giants to brew pubs and microbreweries. It’s a great time to remember that the most experienced brewers in the world today use all-natural diatomaceous earth (DE) filter systems to get the finest beer quality, taste and clarity.  [Read More](https://blog.epminerals.com/celebrate-with-a-toast-to-diatomaceous-earth) Topics: [Filtration](https://blog.epminerals.com/topic/filtration), [Diatomaceous Earth](https://blog.epminerals.com/topic/diatomaceous-earth), [Filter aid](https://blog.epminerals.com/topic/filter-aid) ## [Today is National Diatomaceous Earth (DE) Day!](https://blog.epminerals.com/celebrate-national-diatomaceous-earth-de-day-on-august-31-0-0) Posted by [Julie Brown](https://blog.epminerals.com/author/julie-brown) Aug 31, 2017 5:46:31 AM ![HB_Mine_Pics_003.jpg](https://blog.epminerals.com/hs-fs/hubfs/HB_Mine_Pics_003.jpg?width=640&name=HB_Mine_Pics_003.jpg) *Diatomaceous earth being mined at EP Minerals' Lovelock, NV mine* Most people know of diatomaceous earth because they use it to filter their swimming pools or for its natural insecticide properties to control insects in their homes or gardens.

Every day we find a new use or application for our DE. This week, UC Riverside engineering professors announced that they're using DE as a source of silica for electric car battery anodes. Hello, Elon Musk and Mr. Panasonic! Most people who believe in the electric car revolution would agree with this statement: “Batteries that power electric vehicles are expensive and need to be frequently charged, which causes anxiety for consumers and negatively impacts the sale of these vehicles. To improve the adoption of electric vehicles, we need much better batteries.”  Those are the words of Mihri Ozkan, a professor of electrical engineering at the University of California – Riverside’s Bourns College of Engineering. He and his colleague Cengiz Ozkan, a professor of mechanical engineering at UCR, have recently published a paper in the journal [Scientific Reports](http://www.nature.com/articles/srep33050) entitled “Carbon-Coated, Diatomite-Derived Nanosilicon as a High Rate Capable Li-ion Battery Anode.”  Mihri Ozkan says, “We believe diatomaceous earth, which is abundant and inexpensive, could be another sustainable source of silicon for battery anodes.” [Read More](https://blog.epminerals.com/diatomaceous-earth-proves-key-to-electric-car-battery-anode-challenge) Topics: [Diatomaceous Earth](https://blog.epminerals.com/topic/diatomaceous-earth) ## [Dynamite!

You probably know his name because of the Nobel Prize, the highly respected award that is given in the fields of peace, literature, chemistry, economics, physics and medicine. But Nobel is also well-known for something else – dynamite. The material that Nobel mixed with nitroglycerin to form dynamite was diatomaceous earth!
