Looks industrial.
Now a righteous FReeQ/anon would look up those cities and see what's there. Labs, factories, military, etc.
Sadly, I'm about tapped out for the moment and heading for the big nap in the sky, old fokker what I am.
Maybe some industrious Qtard will dig up something. Where's Ymani when you need him. Or TexOkie, for that matter. What ever happened to her, anyway?
Ni ni, my bunkies.

Looks like a volcano on flat ground. Where’s the lightning?
Something is burning very hot but not completely combusting, hence the black smoke and strong vertical development. A white cloud would be un-burned fuel and highly explosive. Stay away from white smoke.

Significance of Polysilicon:
From Jan 15, 2020
"WASHINGTON _ The United States’ three remaining manufacturers of polysilicon today thanked President Trump and praised U.S. negotiators for securing the Chinese commitment to purchase U.S. polysilicon in the Phase 1 U.S.-China trade deal, while noting any benefit for U.S. manufacturers and workers will depend on how China implements the agreement."
"Polysilicon is the fundamental building block for the semiconductor and solar industries, used to make ingots and wafers for solar cells and the integrated circuits that power everything from smartphones to autonomous vehicles and electronics. The U.S. polysilicon industry represents over $10 billion in capital investment and employs thousands in high-skilled, high-wage jobs. The inclusion of polysilicon in the Phase 1 trade deal reflects recognition by U.S. government officials of the U.S. polysilicon industry’s strategic significance to American defense and energy industries and future manufacturing innovation.
"“We hope this agreement will result in a more level playing field for this important building block to the solar and electronics industries,” said Mark Bassett, chairman and CEO of Michigan-based Hemlock Semiconductor Operations (HSC). “Maintaining and expanding U.S. production capacity is vital to supporting high-wage American manufacturing jobs based on high-tech innovation.”"
"In 2014, China closed its market to U.S. polysilicon by imposing tariffs on imports of U.S-made solar-grade polysilicon. China has heavily subsidized its own polysilicon producers since imposing the tariffs on U.S. producers and has focused on concentrating demand for polysilicon in China. This industrial policy has created massive overcapacity in China, burdening the global industry and worsening conditions for the U.S. polysilicon industry."
