Looking for a #petrology postdoc? Please think about contacting me about writing a proposal for the Miller fellowship! Interested in melt and fluid inclusion ideas, #sulfur and chalcophile elements, #EBSD etc..we have #Raman and a new #SEM, and right near a #beamline!"

Question to the #geomasses. Has anyone seen quartz veins that look like this?
This has been previously described as a mineralizated qrtz vein, but for the life of me I have never seen a quartz vein that texturally looked like this. Texturally it looks more like a melt to me, note the incorporated clasts of host rock on the right, and the irregular almost podiform nature of the 'vein' (see second image). However, it only contains quartz and calcite...

#Goldschmidt2023 is over. A very intense but rewarding week talking about #geochemistry, #petrology and #volcanoes 🌋 and meeting lots of colleagues. Looking forward to the next one...

For those interested in open source tools and software in geochemistry, petrology and related fields, the #Goldschmidt2023 session "Geoscientists’ Little Helpers – small software tools with big impact" is showcasing a wide ensemble of new and existing projects across the community. It's certainly nice to see a spotlight on all of these things enabling new science across the community!

Rock forming wars. Dueling melts and new incursions break early fortifications.
Solid solution shifts and crystallization/re-melting modify chemistry as new blood is added.
Crystals jockeying and wrestling for components as the chemistry, temperature and pressures vacillate across eutectics.
When magmas collide, it beggars comprehension…but to tease out the truths told is to look into the very face of Nature.

For #ThinSectionThursday, I present the NWA 4723 meteorite.
NWA 4723 is the official Meteoritical Bulletin catalog name for a single large L3 chondrite stone recovered from the Saharan Desert in Morocco prior to 2006.
Photo shows a close-up of a single chondrule-like structure. It's unusual appearance resembles a face of some kind. What do you see?

Because if you wanna #melt dry ass #rock you gotta come up with 1600°C to 2300°C (no I don't know how much that is in The Stupid Units, look it up) and I hate to break it to you: that shit ain't gonna happen anywhere near earth' surface (except that one time where it did. Because who you gonna call, the #petrology police? https://doi.org/10.1093/petrology/egz040)
No, best I can do is 1200°C

Anybody knows what these minerals are? Hint: This is thin section (PPL) of a rock from the contact aureole of the Bugaboo Batholith at Cobalt Lake (SE British Columbia; photo also below).

#Introduction Hellos! I think I've finally found my server. 3rd time's the charm. I'm into creating #Art, cataloging #Insects, #Books, #Conservation and #Restoration. Other interests #Geology, #Petrology #Entomology, #Botany, #SoilScience. I watch an obscene amount of #Movies, mostly #Horror, #Scifi, and #Documentaries. Married with pets.

Well, #ChatGPT has a hard time with basic #igneous #petrology. Asked it to describe the formation of a xenocryst in granite and 4 out of 5 responses were well dressed gibberish, and the 5th was only somewhat correct. Why yes, I'm an old #geology nerd.

Redo post, still learning how to use this site. #ThinSectionThursday #geology #volcano Here's a low quality phone picture of a clinopyroxene (blue mineral in cross polarized light) with a weird calcite inclusion in a #basalt (technically not a basalt due to low SiO2). This sample is one of many that has me pondering the timing of crystallization and eruption. #petrography #petrology #microscope

I'm married with #Pets. #WhatWeDoInTheShadows is as hilarious as #YoungFrankenstein and I'll happily die on that hill. I read #Horror, #Scifi, and #Textbooks. So far I really like the set up here and looking forward to connecting with new people.

Here goes my #introduction! Hi all, I am a #geologist specializing in #petrology, #geochemistry and #volcanology both from analytical and #experimental perspectves. Now I study several eruptions in #Tenerife and #LaPalma, #Canary Islands. Although originally from northern Spain, I've spent most of my career between Italy and Germany. I am also into amateur #astronomy, and in fact you can expect some astrophotos here from time to time. I will post in #English, #Spanish and perhaps some #Italian!

I see #qoto people doing an #introduction so I should also do a hashtag barrage...
First Life: #geology, #metamorphic #petrology, #isotope #geochemist, #geochronology, #subduction.
Second life: Trophy Husband.
Third Life: #downstream #biomanufacturing, #quality control, cGMP, #protein stability, #analytical #chemistry
meanwhile: #grindcore #metal
I hope I did those hashtags right or I'm gonna look like an #idiot
