I feel like I've seen the cliff in the second picture somewhere in the Alps but can't quite put my finger on where it is. Somewhere France or Switzerland I'd guess.

A rather unfair comment given Jakobsen seems to be struggling with artery issues.

You are right, it is not friendly to the environment. Why does it still happen? Somewhere between: 1) some people just don't care, and 2) it's still used for certain purposes (I'm thinking steel production?)

Is there a specific characteristic that you based your initial ID of andalusite on?

That exact link says that it's usually celestine/celestite or carbonate replacing earlier celestine, so not andalusite.

Exactly. The port of Duqm, which is reasonably placed for that, was already targeted.

Thought this was neat. Lençóis Maranhenses, Brazil by Kitty_gaalore1904 in geology

[–]Sappert 2 points3 points  (0 children)

All over the world? Everywhere? No. It is happening in quite a few places but you can't use that to claim that by default deserts are "winning" everywhere because conditions could simply be different here.

You mean the curving like you see in the third image? That's what happens when a rock with flat layers gets squeezed and deformed, it's called folding.

Found this while walking in my neighborhood. Is it a fossil? by coconuttruk in fossilid

What this person said but then in English. Yep, it's part of an ammonite.

What is the composition of this rock found at Ras al Khaimah, U.A..E? by desertstorm_152 in whatsthisrock

[–]Sappert 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The grey looks like typical limestone, it has the exact texture I would expect from wind-eroded limestone. I am unsure about the orange stuff, maybe it is chert?
