See the article:

Now, let's have a collection to get a ticket for Guth so he can go collect it and alleviate the impending shortage here on Earth!

Hardly startiling news - they confirmed measurements made 4 decades ago, and
all along the Chinese have been stating that the moon is a source of Helium
3 which would allow clean Fusion reactors - not with standing the fact that
Hydrogen Fusion reactors haven't been developed yet and the Helium units
would require an order of magnitude temperature increase.

Actually, for such a naked moon it is leaking a fair amount of its
helium, although nothing like Venus.

However, there could be large pockets of regular helium sequestered
within that fused basalt crust, not to mention whatever's kept safely
under all of that fused basalt. The physically dark surface is
supposedly hosting enough 3He to keep our global energy consumption up
to excessive amounts for centuries to come.

Currently us humans contribute roughly 70 TW to all the natural
sources of terrestrial energy, which naturally converts into heat
that's helping to melt every last km3 of our glacial ice.

The good news is that Greenland will become the new and improved Eden
that future generations are going to continually fight over.

Helium comes primarily from thorium, uranium and radium. Why
shouldn't our moon have those elements?

In addition to having loads of helium, it also has many other
minerals, including those of paramagnetic and diamagnetic properties,
as well as unavoidably reactive to raw UV...

Moon’s natural surface colors are those of perfectly natural minerals
as the react to the visible and UV spectrum, with only their color/hue
saturation cranked up. No false or artificial colors added.

There's certainly no shortage of light, medium and heavy elements on
that physically dark and paramagnetic moon.

Here’s a little something that most any dysfunctional 5th grader or
even a demented geologist that gets to pretend knowing all there is to
know, can do for themselves.

Moon’s natural surface colors are those of all the perfectly natural
minerals as they unavoidably react to the visible and UV spectrum, as
only better viewed with having their natural color/hue saturation
cranked up, as otherwise there’s no false or artificial colors added.

Oddly the NASA/Apollo and rad-hard Kodak version of our physically
dark and paramagnetic moon is apparently the one and only off-world
location that becomes more inert as well as more reflective and
monochromatic by the closer you get to it, and any planet other than
Earth simply can’t be recorded within the same FOV as having the
horizon of that naked moon (regardless of the direction or use of any
given lens, as well as not even possible when using a polarized
optical filter to reduce the local surface glare).

Your inability to contribute any sort of deductive science as to the
geology and metallicity of our moon, is proof positive that you and
others of your kind feel like you are being put at risk by way of my
topics and replies.

No, your topics consist of cutting and pasting technical statements to generate an apparently educated personna. You've had your arguments shot down so many times that the flames are continuous.

At least my flames are honestly independent and without ulterior
motives, whereas I bet your flames have a status-quo stench about
them.

Can you tell us what sort of minerals or raw elements make any of
these colors?

The moon is not monochromatic nor inert:
Moon’s natural surface colors are those of all the perfectly natural
minerals as they unavoidably react to the visible and UV spectrum, as
only better viewed with having their natural color/hue saturation
cranked up, as otherwise there’s no false or artificial colors added.
