@sedsnseismic @dolomite_ash Congratulations Liz!!

Funny hat day! Finally got around to my graduation 😅 Thanks @dolomite_ash for the beautiful flowers! 😊 #phdlife #scimelb #unimelb

...announce...

What an auspicious day to account this new CSIRO discovery -

Great 3D of Perth Canyon - I keep forgetting this fantastic features is hiding just off the coast from where I live.

That's going to look stupid in 60 million years

Quack!

@palaeokatie Fossil spirit level

There’s a lot going on in this wee agate in matrix 🖤

We are getting some amazing photos submitted to our #NTRocks photo competition like this beauty from @PeterHainesGeo from Ross River. There's still time to submit!

@sediAus Great soft sediment field photo @sediAus. I must get back to Bunyeroo Gorge again one day - been too long!

Part of your PhD field area @PeterHainesGeo - proof people do continue to read your thesis :)

Kicking off my #FieldPhotoADay with this absolute stunner of fluid escape structures and soft sediment deformation in the Neoproterozoic Wonoka Formation, Bunyeroo Gorge, in the Ikara - Flinders Ranges on Adnyamathanha Yarta (Country) #FieldFotoFriday

@geoAlanC @UniAdelSciences @iGo2Arkaroola Good shot! The unconformity beneath the Paralana Quartzite by any chance?

I’ve got back into crafting with a new hobby that definitely still needs practice, but I’m pretty happy with this creative attempt based on Western Australia #geology but make it #Crafts

@sandramcgeo I went to the discovery site (a old serpentinite quarry) when I lived in Tasmania and have a couple of specimens of stitchite in my collection somewhere.

#Stitchite (purple) a Mg, Cr carbonate mixed with serpentinite (green) from the type locality in western Tasmania #MineralMonday

It’s been a long week/month/year/lifetime full of local and global unhappy, but I had a few minutes of escape with an impromptu visit to our sample storage drawers @SciMelb yesterday: a thread of some random discoveries 🤩 #geology 🧵

@andersonmineral @MuseumofNature Topaz?

Time for another difficult #GuessTheGem!! What #mineral do you think this modified lozenge cut #gem is? Hint: it’s from a New York state locality well known to mineral collectors for this mineral’s high quality. #Min2022

This is real geo-art!

@DrPopCultureBG @LadyUltrasuede I remember buying a 40 Mb drive around 1989-90. It cost me a packet, and I wasn't sure how I'd ever fill it up. I'll sell it to a museum on day.

@SpikesSpines Google image search for archaeocyatha: #imgrc=LTY13AwemMuNPM" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">google.com.au/search?q=archa…

@SpikesSpines Look like archaeocyathids, early to mid-Cambrian. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Archaeocy…

Fossil twitter...wondering what these might be? Flatworms or sponges or something ? Provenance unknown unfortunately. #FossilFriday #Fossils

@VeetheRockChick @JarrettGeo @Heidi_the_geo Good trip! I think it was 2014.

@JarrettGeo I think that was collected on a trip with @Heidi_the_geo @PeterHainesGeo and Kath Grey after AGES maybe in 2016?

Just admiring this ~800 million year old stromatolite from the Johnny's Creek Formation in Central Australia. Collected by @VeetheRockChick #NTRocks
