Hi everyone,
Fresh from the press 🚨
Our paper on trace elements and PGE fractionation in komatiitic chromite (Gorumahisani greenstone belt, E. India) as a result of metamorphism and associated hydrothermal effect is out now. Hope you will like it.

The first time I heard that this used to be proximal alluvial fan deposit during Nooproterozoic, I just climbed like a lizard to be on top of it. I still have a bruise mark on my elbow from that climb. ;)

@geology_johnson The pyrite is being altered to form goethite.

You wanna get away from all the bad things of this world? You may try, but I doubt.. cuz here pyrite also gets pirated...

Doing field work in the foreland Siwalik basin is so much fun yet so difficult. So much is happening withing the sediments.

"Tell me the secrets of the Late Ordovician mass extinction," he whispered to the oncoid platform bed. But it said nothing, for it was a rock. #FossilFriday

Hills of Tertiary sediments in Himalayan region. They are geologically important as they record the transition from early Miocene Tethyan marine sediments to late Miocene continental alluvial fan. Area: Tileli, Sundernagar, H.P.

Some field works are my favourites and when it comes to Siwalik sediments, I always get overwhelmed ....

So far we've confirmed more than 5,000+ planets beyond our solar system. Exactly 0 of them are just like Earth. We've found raining glass and lava oceans. Some planets have two suns, others have three. Each one is a real world to explore: https://t.co/Q72MwrjTwX

The lest one is a picture of burnt wood due to high electrical voltage, right one is a dendritic river network. Aren't there is a stark similarity. Is the what makes the electrical flow against wood similar to water flow through earth? Is it the medium is similar or the fluid?

[Sinchan Bhattacharya @SinchanBhattac3]

This is a dark day for mankind. I can't dare to imagine that what we call a progressive society can come up with such solutions.

It's amusing to come across these structures unexpectedly. #foodforbrain #sedimentology #tertiarybasin #HimachalPradesh

The @canarabank has the worst service ever. The employees at #Ichapore branch are just not cooperative at all.

My father had nine FDs at that branch. One of them didn't have nominee. After my father expired due to #COVID last year, they are just playing around with the money.
