*************************************************************************
As the United States looks closely at the vast mineral wealth of Venezuela, attention is turning to the ancient Guiana Shield—one of the world’s richest regions for oil, gold, and minerals. But beyond resources lies Mount Roraima, a surreal flat-topped mountain that once inspired Arthur Conan Doyle to write The Lost World.
Rising from mist-covered cliffs and home to ancient rock formations nearly two billion years old, Mount Roraima spans the borders of Venezuela, Guyana, and Brazil. Known as a tepui by indigenous communities, it hosts unique ecosystems found nowhere else on Earth.
As geopolitics, mineral exploration, and environmental concerns collide, a crucial question emerges: can this iconic “lost world” remain unscathed in an era of strategic competition and resource extraction?
