Monday Geology Picture(s): University Coral Outcrop

Posted by Evelyn Mervine

Coral exposed at the university outcrop. You can tell geologists have been here! Barbados, June 2009.

For this week’s Monday Geology Picture post, I thought I would share a few more pictures from my class field trip to Barbados back in 2009. One day we visited a well-known coral outcrop located adjacent to the University of the West Indies. You could tell that geologists had been there before by all the drill holes!
