Time and pressure shape more than just stone. Old Rock Day reflects how mental health is built through endurance, grounding, and quiet strength developed over time, even when growth feels slow and unnoticed, and stability becomes its own form of progress.

A two foot inflatable duck propped against a wagon wheel and wooden fence. There is a bright green field behind it. The sky is solid, bright blue fading upwards to a darker blue. In the background, Chimney Rock is over the duck's head and next to the wagon wheel.
Its #OldRockDay and #WhimsicalWednesday!

These red foxes live in Quebec's northern region of Nunavik, where some of the oldest surface rock formations on the planet have been found.

🪨 Old Rock Day!
King County’s rivers have shaped rocks and landscapes for thousands of years, forming floodplains and valleys we still rely on today. We work with river science and geology to build resilience. 🌊🪨

It’s #OldRockDay 🪨 A reminder to appreciate deep time, quiet resilience & the stories written in stone. Sometimes the oldest things offer the best perspective. 🌍

Aerial photograph and plan showing the distribution of monoliths and other structures around megalithic architecture, built on top of the remains of what is likely a Mesolithic hut.
It's #OldRockDay, the perfect excuse to share the iconic old rocks of megalithic Carnac, France 🪨
Here, Neolithic standing stones were constructed on the remains of a Mesolithic hut, indicating the complex has its origins much earlier than expected.

⚒️ If it's #OldRockDay in the tricentenary year of James Hutton's birth, we are obliged to commemorate the set of rocks that first crystallized exactly how old rocks could get:
(I've linked to the spectacular drone footage at the end of this @bgs.ac.uk video; the rest of it is also worth a watch)

Massive rock formations stretch across the Bay of Fundy coastal area near Digby Nova Scotia, meeting the vibrant blue of the sea. Patches of seaweed add color to the rugged terrain.
It's #OldRockDay & these basalt headlands near Digby #NovaScotia are certainly old! #VisitNovaScotia #Rockformation #geology #seascape @historyofgeology.bsky.social @geologytime.bsky.social @visitnovascotia.bsky.social @lasobremesa.bsky.social

Colour illustration of rock formations with wheat growing on them, entitled 'View in the Great Chasm of Axmouth Landslip.' Looking Westward. Reaping the Wheat 25th August 1840.' The illustration includes depictions of people in 19th century clothing.
This beautiful colour plate shows rock formations on the East Devon coast caused by landslips between December 1839 & February 1840. Corn grew on the rocks that had fallen from the fields above, attracting fascinated visitors.

Happy Old Rock Day (January 7)! 🪨✨
No, this isn't about classic 70s bands—it’s about the actual foundations of our planet! Today is all about appreciating the beauty of geology, fossils, and the stones that have been here for millions of years.

go.nasa.gov/4fTTUel The oldest rocks on Earth are over 4 billion years old. Common chemical elements in rocks, like oxygen and silicon, were made by stars that exploded before our solar system formed. #OldRockDay

Don’t take schist for granite. We all have our faults, and sometimes can’t handle the pressure, but it’s important to remember to be kind and gneiss to each other as we weather the storm a cummingtonite.

Not only is #TrilobiteTuesday but it is also #oldrockday!
Here is probably the best Elrathia antiquata specimen I have in my collection. This comes from the Middle Cambrian (Drumian) Conasauga Formation from Floyd Co, Georgia.

Celebrate #OldRockDay by creating your own petroglyph.
Use this #Wixie template to have students "carve" a petroglyph image using the Eraser tool. Encourage them to use the microphone tool to tell the story of their rock art.

A polished surface of a rock. The rock is comprised of crystalline minerals in three different colours, organised into undulating and folded bands. The thickest bands, and most prominent colour, is made of pink feldspar. This is interspersed with thin bands of fine black crystals, biotites and pyroxenes, and the occasional medium-thickness band of white quartz.
We couldn't let #OldRockDay pass us by without celebrating Scotland's oldest rock the Lewisian Gneiss!
This suite of rocks is 1.7 billion years old at its YOUNGEST with the oldest parts up to 3.0 billion years old!
See them for yourself in the Outer Hebrides and the North West Highlands
