It really peeves me when
people change the source on my posts. The websites I get the pictures from deserve credit!

I just updated my FAQ,
you curious mineral lovers <3
itstimetochangeourworld asked: Awesome blog. I'm at an environmental college, and I'm learning about rocks and minerals in the southern Ontario region. I haven't seen anything as cool as what you post, but I must say Biotite and Muscovite are pretty neat. I'm sure there's got to be really cool minerals all over the Canadian Shield though.. do you know of any really cool minerals I could look for while...
anneauxdesaturne asked: Do you have any photo of labradorite? I've been looking in your blog but i don't find anything. I love mineral rocks, thank you for dedicate a blog for them.

Can you believe it!?
There is a mineral called Cummingtonite!
So remember my Geology vs. Hollywood class I told...
Well we watched I Am Legend and I am expected to write a response with how accurately portrayed the world without humans would be after three years in the movie. So far I wrote the last line of my response:
“Luckily, the director made up for any scenarios that were not quite right, by peppering the film with gratuitous Will Smith muscle shots”.

Hey y'all
If you’re at all interested in the personal life of the young lady who runs mineralia, immediately go to my personal tumblr, callipygianduchess. If you are not interested, then carry on with whatever you were doing previously!
011690 asked: Do the Rhodochrosite not remind you of poppy flowers?
