Dyanna and MS student J Schneider attended a Microtectonics workshop in Mainz Germany led by Cees Passchier, Virginia Toy, and Friedrich Hawemann. We saw some great rocks and learned a lot!
Beautiful crenulated biotite schist
Some “daisies” of opaque minerals with garnet coronas
Pseudotachylite from the Outer Hebrides
Amazing framboidal pyrites with quartz fringes from the Yilgarn craton
