I was so excited when I spotted this #fracture . Lot's of amazing things around! #anperc #KAUSTResearch #structuralgeology #EarthDay2022

Still not really into twitter, but finding funny hashtags like #fridayfold . Here's one with a neat layer competence contrast from the Andean Precordillera near Mendoza (gravel for scale🤷‍♂️). #structuralgeology

Happy with folds 😍

Look at this beauty!

Ever wondered how folds like this form? Here’s a wee video on them. Not gonna lie I’ve honestly forgotten most of my structural geology from uni 😅. #geology #geologist #scottish #scottish fold #fold #structuralgeology #geology fold #scottish geology #scottish geologist

Giving an AAPG PSGD webinar talk on #CCS and #structuralgeology in the northern North Sea later today. Still time to register here: aapg.zoom.us/webinar/regist…

Folded, re-folded and (maybe?) unfolded quartz veins!

Of quartz, in the northern Cap de Creus shear belt, easternmost Pyrenees

On the way home after a fantastic week in SW Wales (Tenby) with my GeoNetZero CDT peers. We spent the week investigating the economics and development of subsurface resources. Superb outcrops and even managed a few dips in the water!

So cool how the fracture patterns (in two orientations) control #incision ! Looks like a low-res model, but no. #Tectonics and #StructuralGeology are sneaky and pervasive. 1/2
