Battery ore, anyone? #Lithium #minerals

Lithiophorite & hollandite from Eichigt, #Erzgebirge on #ThinSectionThursday. L: RL air R: RLXPL. Here, Ltp contains on avg. 0.5 wt% #lithium, 12 wt% #cobalt & 34 wt% #manganese - #rawmaterials needed for #lithiumbattery production.

Really happy that our new paper on Cl and Br in sphalerite is finally online: https://t.co/BHOnoJjgpR

Check it out if you're interested in #Geochemistry, #EconomicGeology, or simply love sulphide minerals.

@EarthSciCam Haha - of course! Nothing beats the real thing. Glad you like the idea though! :)

Can't believe #BooksOfGeology isn't a thing yet! So here's a lovely 1920s reproduction of one of THE first geology books ever to start: De Re Metallica by Georgius Agricola.

@EarthSciCam perhaps you would like to delight us with some photos of the original.😉

@EarthSciCam Me, too! Apologies for being a little slow in replying. I made a new hashtag just now that I think you may enjoy^^.

Hello World!

[Mathias Burisch @BurischMathias]

Congratulations to J. Schulz-Isenbeck & C. Rossberg who successfully defended their MSc theses today! Both topics are related to the #SilverCity #exploration project, #Freiberg.

@BurischMathias @TUBergakademie Very excited to see all the new results from this! :)

[Mathias Burisch @BurischMathias]

After two months of #covid #lockdown we can finally go back to work in our #FluidInclusion lab @TUBergakademie. We are following a strict hygiene protocol to make sure everybody stays safe and healthy.

@EarthSciCam Hello Sarah. 😀How are you?

It's all very new to me here - but I think I may enjoy this!

[Max Frenzel @MaxFrenzel]

@FMDeegan Thank you, Frances - I'll try and keep the Pratchett references coming. 😆

[Max Frenzel @MaxFrenzel]

Thought I'd share these two Irish beauties for #ThinSectionThursday. Rather unusual colloform chalcopyrite, bornite and tennantite with sphalerite, pyrite, galena and barite from the Lisheen mine.

#Freibergite (Fh) from its type locality #Freiberg, #Erzgebirge accompanied by #pyrargyrite & #quartz on #thinsectionthursday (RL/XPL). The peripheral sectors of the #epithermal system are exceptionally rich in #silver.
