This lantern slide showing contorted schists in Anglesey, Wales, belongs to our structural geology collection. Which rock group does schist belong to?

This is a fine example of a recumbent fold, where one axial plane is almost horizontal. You can find this fold in the Alps.

Look at this stunning syncline from Newport, Pembrokeshire! Dated to the Ordovician, this fold is over 443 million years old.

The image in this lantern slide shows the Mythen in the Alps. The Mythen is a Klippe, an isolated remnant of older rock surrounded by younger, underlying rock, which has moved from its original position due to thrusting or folding.

Tiger's Eye is a popular gemstone used in modern #jewellery, but this #mineral is also thought to have been worn by #Roman soldiers for protection in battle!

This week's #FoldFriday post comes with a hint of history! This impressive image of rocks folding at Bennane Cave, Scotland, is on a lantern slide, one of the earliest forms of projecting images.

Some red tones for autumn! Can you spot the fold in this jasper specimen?

Thomas Sopwith took advantage of his cabinetmaking skills when developing these wooden models to show the geometry of rock beds and help miners estimate coal reserves. The models also served as a useful teaching aid for map work and structural geology.
