We love seeing a great "rock library"! Every neighborhood should have one! 🥰

Big fluorescent rock slab at the Museum of Natural History, NYC. Do I hear “museum rave”? 😉 #rocksarecool
It’s like one of those optical illusions

Something that looks like a tree stump but it's made out of rock!! Has a bunch of gray, brown, and orange streaks. The top looks like it's made out of light gray and brown rock. Moss on the side too.
A closeup of the top of the petrified wood stump. Wood grain can be seen in the rock, as well as some deep purple, gray, and reddish-brown colors.
It's a stump, it's a rock, it's... BOTH??? Super cool specimen of petrified wood we ran into today while dropping my sister off @ OSU school of forestry. #RocksAreCool #GoBeavs 🦫🧡 #Geology
Rock wall in Marseille. #rocksarecool #france
These are rocks of an ‘Ecotone’ - a region that lies between two ecological zones. In this case the Canadian Shield lies to the north of the area I was in (Kinmount, Ontario) and the St. Lawrence Lowlands lie to the south.

a close-up of a pile of rhodochrosite. It looks like a bunch of strips of bacon
@mineralcup.bsky.social My housemate and I are still randomly shouting MEAT ROCK! MEAT ROCK! MEAT ROCK!
I blame you. And the cave ham.

It is somewhat frustrating how much more love my #paleoceanographic work is getting relative to the #carbonate #sedimentology.
I mean, #RocksAreCool, aren't they?
