⚒️ I’m amazed by the totally fossilised whale bones just lying on the surface! A total decoupling of mineralisation from sedimentation (because the sedimentation rate is so low)!
Finally, footage from that new whale graveyard.
The fact that fossils and fresh carcasses mix together in this spot is bonkers. But of course it makes sense, because the scavengers that live down there also need a steady supply over millions of years. They can't just suddenly adapt to the deep.

🌋Phreatic eruptions at Whakaari volcano are influenced by subsurface pressurisation magnitudes and timescales, which in turn are significantly influenced by hydrothermal mineralisation and magmatic gas input rates.

Phreatic eruptions at Whakaari Volcano driven by hydrothermal mineralisation and magmatic gas input - Communications Earth & Environment
Phreatic eruptions at Whakaari volcano are influenced by subsurface pressurisation magnitudes and timescales, which are significantly influenced by hydrothermal mineralisation and magmatic gas input rates, according to 3-dimensional numerical modelling of volcanic hydrothermal systems.

A Black limpet shell.
I think this (blackening) happens to some shells after the animal has died as I have yet to find a live specimen in a black shell. I'm not sure of the staining or mineralisation process that leads to this but if anybody has any ideas I'd be most interested hearing them.

A few miles up the road from here, there's a lovely heap of Palaeozoic rocks with associated lead mineralisation. Not in Wales. Just saying.

The marbled surface of this tabletop is not stone but made from human tissue - blood, brain, liver, bile, and lungs. On the surface is the hand of a young girl. It was made in the 1860s by Dr Efisio Marini, one of the Italian petrifiers who used various methods to preserve flesh by mineralisation.
