@metageologist.bsky.socialLovely sunny afternoon, so popped down the coast to a nearby famous geological site, Siccar Point. The shore visited by James Hutton in 1788 had just gone into shade, but the sun was still on the SE side of the point, lighting the unconformity between Silurian turbidites and Devonian sandstones.

Show PostI was offered two spare places on a boat trip down the coast from Dunbar to Siccar Point: a recreation of James Hutton's 1788 trip [1]. The weather was fab and we could see some parts of the unconformity that are hard to view from on land. #geology (1/2). [1] en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_H...

Show PostNice isoclinal folds in marbles from the Island of Gorgona, Italy. This place is a prison where you need a permit to go and another special permit to shot photos, so please enjoy something that's really hard to photograph 😘 ⚒️ #geology
