  3. Forillon: Land's End of the Appalachians

    Forillon National Park marks the northern terminus of the Appalachian Mountains. The dramatic cliffs plunging into the Gulf of St. Lawrence are the very end of this ancient mountain chain. The park showcases a unique blend of marine and terrestrial ecosystems, where whales swim at the feet of forested peaks. #Canada #Forillon #Quebec #Appalachians 🇨🇦

  7. Wildlife clearing atop Allison Ridge in North Georgia, USA.

    These "balds" were common across the Appalachians for centuries. Most are actively maintained as wildlife openings by wildlife & forest agencies. The density of bird species on these is incredible.

  13. Repost: Kyanite isn't just a fetching blue mineral that documents the experience of sediments under extreme duress.
    It's an ore: Virginia alone mined 83,000 tonnes in 2023. Kyanite in furnace insulation transforms to mullite when heated, expanding to reduce porosity and shrinkage.

  15. This is one of the dykes found near Ayer's Cliff, just SE of Magog, Quebec. It's a set of three dykes, one of which has the deep-derived xenoliths. That one dyke (not photogenic) has weathered much faster, perhaps due to a higher carbonate content.

  17. A photo of a Cretaceous dyke intruding into Appalachian-deformed sedimentary rocks deposited in the lower Paleozoic: Earth history from 110 to almost 500 million years ago.

    But records more of the story: it's part of xenoliths brought to the surface by these dykes that document Grenville crust (1.1 billion years old) at depth.

  21. Quite a bit of was extracted from the Jeffrey Mine, Quebec. It is located on a line of oceanic lithosphere attached to North America during the growth of the Appalachians.

    The town of Asbestos, home of the mine, has been renamed 'Val-des-Sources'.

    Much of the expense of renovating buildings in Quebec is the cost of removing the asbestos insulation.

    👎 Estimates that addicts might receive a direct payout to be roughly $3,500.

    This company is disgusting, evil, and vile. Too many #Appalachians were destroyed by their drug pushing lies.

    ➡️ I can't hate a company and their owners more than I do the Sacklers.

    Do yourself a favor and watch Dopesick and Painkiller to learn how evil the Sacklers are.
