This article is a type of journey into the depths of the Earth, where we find rare-earth metals and geological fiction by Nora K. Jemisin. It interweaves stories of global capitalism, underground deities, and digital excavations. The mythical is combined with the technological, while the verbal and visual narrative oscillates between a report on the state of the lithosphere and a diagnosis of the condition of the geological imagination. Keywords: rare-earth metals, deep time, geological fiction, terraforming, noosphere, cosmic storytelling, sedimentation of the mind, archaeology of the future
