Still in the Adriatic crust, but today Durham Earth Science found minerals indicating high pressure conditions; jadeite, glaucophane and phengite - the first hints of subduction related to the Alpine Orogen! #subduction #blueschist #eclogite #fieldwork #handlens

Today Durham Earth Science ventured further into the Alpine Orogen and found some oceanic lithosphere that had been subducted to ~100 km depth! We investigated lovely lawsonite blueschist pillows & serpentinite with roddingised pods. #fieldwork #blueschist #serpentinite #lawsonite

The Geochemistry Group is excited to launch the Geochemistry Group Mentor Scheme (GGMS). This aims to connect ECRs and PhD students with more established geochemists from a range of backgrounds. Deadline for applications 13th of October. For more info, see geochemistry.group/ggms/

The deadline for our geochemistry early career researcher (ECR) mentoring scheme is Friday the 13th of October - see below for more details!

Myself, the BGS at Edinburgh/Keyworth, Bob Holdsworth at Durham Earth Science, and @BarfodDan at SUERC are advertising an opportunity to dive into the Great Glen Fault, including the spectacular Coire Glas pump storage scheme, as part of the IAPETUS DTP scheme. 1/2

Two PhD projects linked to our Natural Environment Research Council calderas project (with opportunities for seagoing fieldwork). - Reconstructing the history of submarine volcanoes using sediment biogeochemistry and modelling - Reconstructing major volcanic eruptions from their deep-sea records Links⬇️
