SIO 50 Lecture Notes - Lecture 6: Nonconformist, Biostratigraphy, Coprolite
Document Summary
All minerals regardless of size will have the same crystallography. Review sheet is on triton ed and lectures will be on tritoned. Go through labs, read textbooks, and lectures (lectures are the important one!!) looked at which is lab quiz (100 points) they are not truly subducting because it is a continental convergence. Mostly multiple choice, some fill in the blank. 3 igneous, 3 sedimentary, 3 metamorphic and stuff you"ve. The force of a larger plate has a subduction like effect on a smaller plate but. Eurasia pushing up, india is too but its is below eurasia and thus getting scraped and getting (cid:498)scraped(cid:499) Deep time- the concept of how big the timescales is in the geologic record. Human history is miniscule compared to geologic time. Oldest rock on the planet is gneiss (acasta gneiss which is 4. 03 billion years. Oldest rocks on earth is like in western australia. Specific ages of materials are calculated using radiometric dating.
