  1. The glorious columnar basaltic cliffs on the Trotternish east coast, Skye, between Bhaltos and Kilt Rock. And they continue for a long way after the end you see here, way past Kilt Rock itself.

  3. 💁🏻‍♀️ ICYMI: 🌳🪨 A large-scale field #experiment in #Wales shows that adding crushed volcanic #basalt rock dust to #soil accelerates native woodland growth.

    The #nature-based method boosted #carbon capture by up to 27% in the first four years, providing an urgent tool for global #climate restoration efforts.

    "Ein großräumiges Feldexperiment in #Wales zeigt, dass das 👉Hinzufügen von gemahlenem #Basalt-Gesteinsstaub zu #Erdboden das Wachstum einheimischer #Wälder beschleunigt.👈

    Die an die Natur angelehnte Methode steigerte die #Kohlenstofferfassung in den ersten vier Jahren um bis zu 27% und war damit ein dringendes Werkzeug für globale #Klimawiederherstellungsbemühungen.

  13. Ancient hominins carefully selected basalt for tool production nearly 800,000 years ago

    Early humans living near an ancient lake in northern Israel nearly 780,000 years ago showed a detailed knowledge of the landscape around them when selecting stone for tools, according to a new study published in Scientific Reports...

  15. Thin Section Thursday! Image & caption by Misha Sarco, UG student at James Madison University. A porphyritic basalt from a lava flow. It contains plagioclase phenocrysts in a fine-grained groundmass, with oscillatory zoning and albite twinning. #basalt #plagioclase #thinsectionthursday

  17. Mineral Monday! Reticulate Intergrowths in Basalt By Chris Hamilton I went on two science & dredging cruises to the Southwest Indian Ridge in 1984 and 1986 as a petrologist. This sample is the first named, first dredged SWIR mid-ocean ridge basalt. #MineralMonday #MSACommunications #basalt #MORB

    We have basalt in Aotearoa, right? Maybe we need to be importing tech from Iceland for more than just geothermal electricity generation?

    But I agree with everyone else you say there. There are a multitude of things we could be doing that the neither NatACT First nor the Hipkins clownshow are likely to support.

  21. #Lava is a mixture of minerals

    Harriened lava is called #basalt. It usually contains a small number of visible #crystals, as in this piece. See those flecks of green? They're crystals of a mineral called #olivine

  24. Hand sample and thin section of a pillow rind and interior from Palaeogene lavas of eastern Baffin island. The solidifying melt continued to exsolve gas bubbles, trapped in the pillow interior by the rind.

  26. A magnesium-rich basalt retrieved by the Apollo 12 mission from the Moon. brightly coloured pyroxene and olivine surround grey plagioclase in cross-polars.

    This photo was taken in 2003 from a travelling collection of thin sections sponsored by NASA.

  27. This October, I decided not travel to Iceland. Doing a lot of writing on an article.

    But I do miss it 🥺 and my iPad knows that.
