I love that green/blue color with the snowy appearance, and have beautiful brights that the camera don't catch... πŸͺ¨πŸ©΅πŸŒ¨οΈβœ¨

#ThinSectionThursday Here's a volcanic rock done right 🀩 πŸ₯° This is a trachyte from the Canary Islands. with a gloriously
diverse pheno(?)cryst assemblage: K-feldspar, nepheline, titanite, zircon, apatite, clinopyroxene AND amphibole (+opaque oxides). Field of view about 2mm wide.

A view of a rock thin section taken using plane polarized light under a polarizing microscope. The rock consists of a fine-grained pale brownish turbid material, with diverse kinds of larger crystals sitting in it. At the bottom left sits a large pale brown lozenge, looking very intense. Abofe this on the left is a patch of intensely brown and green mineral, intergown with clear crystals. Elswhere paler green, and clear crystals can be seen.

Not idea what rock is this...
but have a lot of minerals (Even more than we can see in this video). Probably Muskovite, because they are laminar...

Mineralization (geology) (Mineralogy πŸ’Ž)

In geology, mineralization is the deposition of economically important metals in the formation of ore bodies or "lodes" by various process. The first scientific studies of this process took place in the English county of Cornwall by J.W.Henwood FRS and later by R.W. Fox, FRS. The term can also refer to the process by which waterborne miner...

it's Rhodonite... ❀️✌🏻

I've just dicovered this amazing website about tesselated materials in nature (thanks @gregeganSF 😊 πŸ™ )

tessellated-materials.mpikg.mp

A lot of pals at Glasgow did work in biomineralization. In 2017 there was a residency + exhibition with the artist Rachel Duckhouse, which I think was one of the best such things I've ever been involved with 😊 πŸ€“ 🀩.

Lots of beautiful stuff on Rachel's website here:

View of a framed artwork behind glass on the white all of a gallery. The work consists of scanned pages from the artists notebooks/sketchbooks dealing with the crystallography and nanostructure of mollusc shells examined by scanning electron m icroscope and electron back-scater diffraction.

Macrocrystalline (Petrology πŸ’Ž)

In geology, macrocrystalline rocks have crystals large enough to easily be identified by sight with the naked eye. Macrocrystalline rocks can be further subdivided into fine-grained, medium-grained, large-grained, and coarse-grained rock, where fine-grained rocks have a grain size of less than 1 mm, medium-grained rocks have a grain size of 1 to 5 mm, large-grained rocks ...

Someone know what kind of rock is this?
Google say it's a kind of calcedony or quartzite... πŸͺ¨πŸ’–

Fluid inclusion (Petrology πŸ’Ž)

A fluid inclusion is a bubble of liquid and/or gas that is trapped within a crystal. As minerals often form from a liquid or aqueous medium, tiny bubbles of that liquid can become trapped within the crystal, or along healed crystal fractures. These inclusions usually range in size from 0.01 mm to 1 mm and are only visible in detail by microscopic study, however s...
