So very proud of @forjanes.bsky.social and his 1st @gfz.bsky.social paper

Exquisite data and images of a fabulous geochemical and mineralogical double pseudomorphic reaction
Very excited to share my first 100% @gfz.bsky.social paper on mineral pseudomorphism with my Interface Geochemistry fantastic team! @lianegbenning.bsky.social @jeffperez.bsky.social
New in #GPLetters: Pseudomorphism, one of the most prominent features of mineral replacement phenomena, can survive several successive mineral transformations, as experimentally demonstrated for the 1st time by Forjanes et al ➡️ buff.ly/FbNFwXw

Probably some of the coolest objects we've ever scanned in our #microXRF @amgc-vub.bsky.social were these Indonesian #Kris daggers. Turns out some of them were likely forged with #meteorite metal! Read all about it in our manuscript in MAPS:

There is a weird misunderstanding going around that wealth doesn’t matter for happiness. People in richer countries tend to be more satisfied with their lives. Quite a few (albeit not all!) problems can be solved by throwing money at it. Source: buff.ly/v1tlV9H

75 of #365Minerals 🧪⚒️

Baryte:
- A sulphate mineral
- Forms in many environments e.g. hydrothermal veins, evaporite deposits, volcanism
- Has a high specific gravity of 4.3-5 (quartz is only 2.65)
- Its name comes from the Greek word "βαρύς/barús" (heavy) #minerals

Pues esta captura no era un farol: EKOS acaba de publicar una encuesta en su web en la que *amplía* aún más la ventaja liberal.

Le sacarían casi 18 puntos a los Conservadores y rozarían el 50%.

Trump ha roto las encuestas en Canadá.

🧪 The peer review system is truly broken! 😵‍💫

An editor's perspective:
–Ever increasing number of manuscripts submitted for publication
–Authors want quick editorial decisions + fast peer review
–Reviewers are "too busy" to review
–Everyone wants to submit papers but no one wants to review

No, no da igual. Así es cómo ha evolucionado la renta mediana disponible del 10% más pobre de nuestra sociedad 👇🏼

2008–2017: -22%
2017–2022: +43%

Se puede gobernar para los privilegiados o se puede gobernar para la mayoría.

It's a bit involved, and not strightforwards, but if this hold, this new method could make a huge diffrence in how we trace nutriant avilability and limitation back into the geological record. 🧪⚒️

Existe una calle secreta en Madrid cuya historia es sorprendente. Una vía pública, que da paso a un pequeña plaza-jardín histórica, cerrada a todos los madrileños desde hace casi 200 años.

Esta es la fascinante historia del Pasadizo del Panecillo.
Y una propuesta. ¡Hilo va!🧵

Buenos días, siervos.

Después de probar la jornada intensiva, el turno de mañana, el de tarde y la jornada partida, he llegado a la conclusión de que lo que mejor se adapta a mis necesidades de conciliación familiar es no trabajar.

Ever wondered why dolomite is common in old rocks? Well if you have you are probably a geologist/geochemist and might be interested in this in the latest issue of Science: www.science.org/doi/epdf/10.....
