A bell is ringing somewhere in the in castle. That’s my cue. Let’s see what I have done wrong this time? I head up the narrow servants stairwell that leads to a side door in lord Polonius’s rooms. I am getting too old for this. “My lord what can I help you with?” I said standing to attention. Polonius was seated at his desk in the center of the room. A plate of food was next to him with a nibble taken out of it. Sun came through the window behind him forcing me to squint. “I need you to give…

"It doesn't matter who number five is. I won't be letting you hurt them," Iridian said confidently, as he began texting someone. Texting at the dinner table? How rude. "You don't know the first thing about kindness, about love," Ilya whispered, getting up and walking closer to me. I raised my eyebrow slightly, curious as to what he was going to do next, as he continued, "and I feel sorry for you, you sadistic f---." Then, Iridian punched me square in the face, hitting my nose. It would be an…

ancient siliciclastic sequences of river sediments. The value of the technique lies not only in the number of possible minerals, but also in that many of them have petrogenetic parageneses that positively identify the involvement of particular parent rocks. Single grain analytical methods have been most successful in constraining provenance compared with bulk methods (Gehrels et al., 1995; Mange and Morton, 2007). This approach is based on the principle of finding a diagnostic and distinct…

was observed to be igneous rock, with evidence of batholith, an igneous specific type of intrusion that spans for miles at a time. This is evident in figure 8. Various minerals and a grainy texture were also observed. Because of this, and identification of minerals such as quartz, as observed in figure 6, and orthoclase, in figure 9, this rock was concluded to be the igneous rock, granite. Granite forms when magma under the Earth slowly crystallizes. Igneous rock forms when there is an…

There are many land formations and I chose these three. The first one is a canyon, it’s located in Arizona and its name is Grand Canyon. The second one is a volcano it’s found in Washington State, Cascade Range and it is named Mount St. Helens. The last one is a plateau and it can be found in central Asia and it is called Tibetan Plateau. And then I’ll be comparing the different land forms. The Grand Canyon is in Northern Arizona with an elevation of 8,000 feet. The process of the…

exposed rock material has a visible reverse fault, and is heavy faulted/folded. Visible soil, and vegetation growth on exposed section of the formation. Visible iron oxide staining from fractures in the section both natural, and manmade. Alternating material layers light grey to dark grey in the formation, and thick bands. 0 to 3feet of the section is composed of light grey, and soft material. The bottom facie was a small section of laminated layered shale. 3 feet to 6 feet of the exposed rock…

Questions and Answers Rock specimen “A” is identified as marble. This sample had a white to cream color to it, which is an identifying characteristic of marble. Another characteristic is the calcite inclusion; this inclusion is seen by bubbling when exposed to a saturated citric acid solution. When viewed by the unaided eye, the grain and crystal structure is clearly seen. While marble is supposed to be a fairly soft rock, the example provided proved to be fairly durable which was tested…

The Pinturas Formation (Middle Miocene) includes a sedimentary succession exposed at the Río Pinturas valley, Santa Cruz province, Argentina. It is separated in three members. The lower and the upper ones were dominated by ashfall episodes with paleosol formation during stability times; while the middle member is represented by desert eolian deposits. Mentioned palaeosols bears a moderately diverse ichnofauna. Trace fossils presents are Coprinisphaera murguiai, C. ispp., Loloichnus baqueroensis,…

till. The sandstone was the oldest in the formation of rocks dating back over 550 million years. It was a layered set of sandstone and was folded. The elevation was less than 1,000 feet and its thickness was approximately 115. The next oldest in this area was the Ordovician dolomite. This is roughly 505 million years old. It was bedded flat and had layers. Its elevation was also less than 1,000 and the thickness was approximately 20. The newest rock in the area was the quaternary till that was…
