When Relatives Visit Geologists…

Posted by Evelyn Mervine

When relatives come to into town for a wedding, geologists show them…

….migmatite!

The Cape Point Migmatite. I look slightly more excited than our guest.

….and a xenolith!

Malmesbury siltsone xenolith in Cape Point Granite.

Wonder if the rest of our guests will “appreciate” such geologic sites.
