You are doing such a good job at explaining everything and judging by how much work you put in each of your videos you must really like what you do. I am currently doing my major in geology and until i stumbled upon your channel i wasn't sure if i wanted to pursue a geologist career, but watching your videos is starting to change my mind. As you said in a previous video, its hard to find information on KZread about geoscience compared to the other sciences and you are doing an amazing job filling that gap. Please keep it up and never lose your sweetness. Thanks for everything. 😊

Thank you so much for your well explained lectures! You helped me get through mineralogy last semester and now helping me through petrology. Keep up your great work!

Yes! So glad to hear that my videos have been helpful for you! Best of luck with the rest of your classes, and let me know if you want any specific topics for future videos ;)

What an excellent video! Thermodynamics is always tricky to review let alone teach! Well executed! Im going to use this video as a review in the future. Your command of the various albeit disparate geology sub-disciplines continues to amaze! I’d have to say my favorite igneous texture is typical phaneritic texture. The typical texture of granite and granodiorites, rocks I’m currently working with! I like the juxtaposition of euhedral grains of plagioclase displaying oscillatory zonation against a fine-grained matrix. I’m vanilla, what can I say…….. EDIT: actually rapakivi granites are gorgeous nevermind I’m not that vanilla after all…

Thank you for your videos! Not only do you explain the concepts well, your slides are visually representative of each topic (they are also very colorful and not boring to look at). Truly appreciate your work! Thanks :)

It is interesting what gets a student to take interest in a subject. When you said thermodynamics, I got interested, because I recently heard that thermodynamics affects the direction of our perception of time.

I love the porphyric textures. it is very mesmerizing to think about the way they where formed.

I absolutely love your passion. You explain everything in great detail and I'm understanding the information presented in class much better. Minerology was a bit rough, so I'm definitely trying to recap and continue to learn. Fortunately right now Petrology has been alright. But again, these videos have helped so much. Thanks you again!

Good summary!

These video was really useful and helpful. Thank you very much!

Outstanding work on this lecture! I agree pegmatitic🥇 For me it's the purple lepidolite of the Harding mine NM

I'll go with pegmatitic, too. I once saw a large (5 foot) boulder in a park that was course grained like a normal granite or something (I'm no expert), but had these wonderful inches long orangish pink (orthoclase feldspar?) crystals embedded in it. So cool.

Yes back to rocks 🪨! Time for me to watch and learn something new! I❤️GEO GIRL PS save your biology videos for your BIO GIRL channel

Thank you,, great understanding 😘

New subscriber here looking forward to seeing you and your mind .

I was wonderin if u can contine talking about the other texture like amygdaloidal texture and poikitic and ophitic and sup ophitic etc...

Gibbs free energy! Wow. It has a name!! The chemical bond I asked about in the beginning oh I am stoked, this is amazing 💖

Hi Geo Girl, So what accounts for Spherulitic growth in Felsic Rhyolites? The literature says they ate 'common ' in glassy rhyolites, but what I observed is 'if you find them at all-they most likely will in igneous glassy rocks' which make them Ultra rare and not common at all. Add insult to injury and although these rocks are Felsic ( basic) they are dark colored as if they are Mafic??!? after initial nucleation around a we'll formed Crystal in the melt the sperulites grow outwards in chain connected mers ( polymers) and can be Crystals of Quartz and Crystals of Felspar Polymeric growths and I have heard of quartz/ tourmaline spherulites too. Microscopically the border materials are not glass or glassy and don't break like glass but are something fused together and mostly non fracturable. I'm totally perplexed! Matt in San Diego

Great video :)

HI there, I actually have a video all about how we predict igenous rock composition and texture by phase diagrams: kzread.info/dash/bejne/mamZp6yDlpm_k7A.html Hope this helps ;)

Did you ever work with Shrinermaker (sp) diagrams? Geology is not always described by math or chemistry, but by objective .field observation, Ask the old and dead geologists who found mines and oilfields. And by the way, how does quantum mechanics enter into your lecture?

I'm strangly arroused...Gneiss! (Even though I understood schist!)

It's quite funny, in German "Struktur" refers to the small scale properties of igneous rocks, whereas "Textur" is the large scale characteristics (foliation, lineation etc.)

Listening to English geology as a German is quite fun anyway. Too bad the Feldspat lost it's T in translation to feldspar. I wonder how then this strange word "feldspathoid" came into beeing.

Can an ultramafic rock continue to grow on the surface, after it’s been cut??
