We really hope you enjoy our clips and blogs about the Geology of Cycling. There's much more where that came from, but to keep making these, we're gonna need your help! All blog writers and presenters of Geo-Sports are volunteers, but our editor and film crew are independent professionals. So to also make a 2025 season, we've started a Crowdfunding campaign. Please spread the word, donate, and we'll also see you in 2025 🙏🚴🌋! steun.uu.nl/project/geo-sp…

✨Next Campfire will be next Thursday, on June 27th at 11 am CET ✨ we have three very interesting talks by early career scientists! @EuroGeosciences Sign up at this link: us02web.zoom.us/meeting/regist…

📣 Le Parc naturel régional d'Armorique, présidé par la conseillère départementale @AmelieCaro_, a été officiellement labellisé #geopark mondial par l’@UNESCO_fr ! 🎉 🏆 Une reconnaissance internationale qui vient récompenser un travail engagé il y a plus de dix ans par les géologues locaux et qui a mobilisé équipes techniques, élus du territoire, partenaires associatifs, acteurs scientifiques et habitants. #Finistère #CD29 #UNESCO #géoparc #PNRA

Paper alert! High-P metamorphism in the Mesoproterozoic: Petrochronological insights from the Grenville Province 👉HP granulite from the Central Grenville are late rather than early, & there is no hiatus in between the Ottawan & Rigolet phases more here: authors.elsevier.com/a/1i5bR14fdH28…

Cette année encore notre stand sur les *Super-pouvoirs des Terres Rares* ✨☄️🪨⚡️ @BruandEmilie et Muriel @MaisonMineraux été bien animé! Merci à notre super équipe de volontaires @UMR_Geo_Ocean @MaisonMineraux @Ifremer_fr @IUEM_Brest et @Oceanopolis_

@kimberlite_8 @ERC_Research Amazing! Congratulations!!!!

Plate Tectonics strikes again! I am delighted and humbled by this incredible thing: @ERC_Research StG will fund my FINGER-PT project. It will allow me to explore and use different key minerals to track cold PT back in time. Job opp. to work with me will become available soon :)

@PierreLanari @NMBern @geologyUniBern Oh that’s a cool one! They were also using eclogite btw! People had great taste already then.

Bronze Age people were interested in extraterrestrial rocks, but for different purposes than modern geologists. Check out this paper published with colleagues from @NMBern and @geologyUniBern. We used micro-CT to image the inside of this precious artefact sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

#TdFF2023 étape 3: Lorraine Tual @_garnetite_ met en avant Yvonne Brière, une courageuse doctorante de la fin des années 1910, qui a parcouru la France à la recherche de roches (très) dures appelées éclogites... #geotdf 1/3

If you want to hear more about a female bad-ass geologist 🔨🪨from the 1910’s, hard rock and Neolithic axes 🪓 stories around today’s 🚴‍♀️ TDFF stage ⬇️ Really glad to be part of this awesome @geotdf project! @UMR_Geo_Ocean @IUEM_Brest

Hard rocks were instrumental in the development of humans. They used them for all sorts of stone tools like hand 🪓 and 🔪 On the course we find eclogite, a beautiful green and red rock, long thought to be magmatic. Female science pioneer Yvonne Brière found out they were metamorphosed rocks, which originally formed from the magmatic, basaltic, oceanic crust. Her peers didn’t believe her then and mocked her, but we now know better! @_garnetite_ of @GeosciencesR tells you more! geo-sports.org/2023/stage-3-h… #TDFF2023 #geotdf #geosports

Today the riders race on Swiss cheese. There are holes underneath their wheels everywhere! Is this even safe? How? @vanhinsbergen explains the phenomenon called karst #geosports #geotdf #tdf2023

@CaroGeology @UCAuvergne 🥳🥳🎉🤩 Félicitations! 🥳🤩🍾

I am delighted to annonce that I will be starting a "Maîtresse de Conférences" position (=french fully tenured research and teaching) next september at @UCAuvergne ! Thanks to everyone that has supported me along the way, I can't wait for this new chapter to begin !

Pour le dépôt des résumés, c'est ici et avant le 10/06 : rst2023-rennes.sciencesconf.org/resource/page/… ! @CaroGeology

*·• Intéressé·e·s par la datation des processus géologiques? •·* RDV à la prochaine Réunion des Sciences de la Terre à Rennes (30/10-03/11), dans notre session « Chrono-pétrologie : nouveaux développements, méthodes et applications »

#EGU2023 @EGU_GMPV It's very soon! GMPV 6.2 “Garnet, the ultimate tool in petrology” Conveners: Silvio Ferrero @silvio_ferrero , Lorraine Tual @_garnetite_ , Aratz Beranoaguirre, Gabriele Cruciani Thu 27th April Orals 16:15–18:00 Rm 0.14 Posters 14:00–15:45 Hall X2

J-1 avant un voyage dans le temps à la découverte des variations climatiques au cours des ères géologiques 🚀🌎 @IUEM_Brest @CNRS ➕ d’infos : urlz.fr/l8W5

@geovolcaNic @pcigr @UBCeoas Congratulations 🌋 !

PhDone!! I am so proud of all the hard work I put into this thesis and so very grateful for all the support I've received over the years from @pcigr and @UBCeoas 🌋🧪⚛️

@vanHinsbergen @geotdf It would be quite cool to write a few words about Yvonne Brière and eclogites for sure. I'd be super keen to help. I think she worked on some rocks not far from Limoges, otherwise, we may have to deviate the TDF so it goes through Vendée

Très contente, comme toujours, de faire des conférences “à la maison”. Cette fois, ce sera “les super-pouvoirs des terres rares” avec Muriel @MaisonMineraux et @BruandEmilie à la nouvelle salle de l’Amethyste à Crozon!

Thanks @NuInstruments ! (and @JamieCutts_Geo @naturhistoriska @UBCeoas @pcigr @UBCOSOE @Vetenskapsradet !)
