Once in a lifetime, as a (salt)geologist, you have to touch the #saltmirror (dissolution surface) inside a #saltdiapir . #penrose #salttectonics #Israel #mountsedom #deadsea

The Salt Diapirism & Sediment Interactions fieldtrip has started! Here with some examples on intrasalt stringers #salttectonics With an enthusiastic and diverse audience
π¨ The #salttectonics field trip on the Lusitanian Basin is back for 2023 π£ Registrations are open geologica.xyz/salt-tig-geo-lβ¦
Days #4 & #5 of #salttectonics course had a flap oil reservoir, a vertical weld, dissolution features and and more diapir remnants. What a privilege to co-lead this field trip with such an enthusiastic team.
Last day of the EGC in Aberdeen!
I will present this afternoon at the salt session about the need of the study of field analogues for understanding fracturing around salt bodies.

3.5 days of fieldwork, 3000m total ascent, blue skies, stunning scenery, great company, and... #salttectonics !!!
Never thought I'd be this interested in salt! Awesome and super engaging talk about salt flows Sian Evans #geology #WomenInSTEM #salttectonics #TSG19
A classic one from the '90s with students. 'Salt' diapirism accompanying extension. Always impressive #analoguemodelling #salttectonics #extension #TooLab
You can trust a hunter to know the natural salt licks of game. Here it turned out to be a fault with fluids carrying sulfates. Thanks to Roberto Rossi for sharing his knowledge (and my niece for bravely going where only chamois and geologists go). #Dolomites #salttectonics
πWe are delighted to welcome a new co-leader of the AAPG Salt Basins Technical Interest Group: Geologist Abah Omale! Looking forward to a great season 3 of webinars as we continue to promote diversity and inclusion in the geosciences community β¨ #SaltSaturday #SaltTectonics
Look at this #FridayFold marvel! This photo was taken by NPA's Dr Duncan Witts from a plane as he was flying over the Zagros Mountains in Iran.
Anticlines, synclines, and even a world class salt glacier at the back... can you guess the exact location?
