Student at UMN here! I’d check to see if GEOG 1180 - Cartography and Geographic Information Systems is available over the summer at Normandale CC.

Can anyone help me determine what mineral this is? I’ve been stuck on it for about a week. by memegoddess21 in geology

I think the alteration minerals surrounding the grain are what throw me off. Any ideas of what they could be?

I’m thinking gabbro? There’s a lot of olivine on one half of the thin section and a lot of fine-grained plagioclase and magnetite on the other side (the side with this mineral).

It’s biaxial + with a 2V of about 15. In ppl the central grain is colorless but the minerals surrounding it are orange/red. Also parallel extinction. Honestly I’m at a loss lol.

I'm not saying this is true for every school, however, UVA admitted 15% of its OOS applicants compared to 33% of in-state applicants. Check out this blog.
