Those are both in the mica family.<br />Also in sandstones, tiny bits of quartz can catch the sun.<br /><br />Good reading. ;)Colette Breshearshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05703776330546119655noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6851578517872251953.post-37355414941998995162011-01-15T08:58:26.299-08:002011-01-15T08:58:26.299-08:00I don't know if you receive your comments for ...I don't know if you receive your comments for a long time after you have made a post, but I thought I would comment anyway...<br />This is very well written.

We did s trip with the OSU geology club, maybe 83, to look at these CRB-sediment interactions, but I don't recall the waterfall- which I would- so I don't think we made it to this location. Memories are hazy, but this looks better than the outcrops I remember. Gotta go see!Lockwoodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05960762797349483760noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6851578517872251953.post-11186524042207648922011-01-12T08:20:09.676-08:002011-01-12T08:20:09.676-08:00Nice!
