  • Glad to have you studying with me! I have more content in the works and I hope you'll enjoy it. For those that are interested, the best textbook out there is this one: amzn.to/47VNed8. However, it's a little old now (two of the authors have passed away) and if you prefer a newer textbook, I would recommend this one: amzn.to/45UFDcR
    For other introductory geology lectures: • Introduction to Geology
    This video is my lecture on sedimentary rocks. It covers the textures and origins of sedimentary rocks, the minerals frequently encountered, and the depositional environments. I hope you enjoy it! This video is also closed captioned.

    So a question I've always wondered about might be only vaguely related to the deposition of sediments along the coastline, but it got me thinking about the footprint in a million years for future geologists (you know, after we've all left the earth and it becomes a nature preserve) looking at the Galveston Bay area and how it has been affected by the urbanization of the area. But I digress. I've been told that the dirty murkiness of the Galveston Bay water is due to run off from Houston and the churning up off silt by the huge ships entering the Houston Port. So, as far as the Facies go does it push the mud layer further up or will it adjust property dragging the finer sediment further out to sea?

    • @EarthandSpaceSciencesX
      @EarthandSpaceSciencesX  7 років тому +6

      The silt and clay (mud) particles that are suspended in the water will likely be discharged further out to sea rather than depositing in Galveston Bay due to the environmental perturbations. Great question!

    We have recently moved to SW Missouri, where all of the rock is sedimentary. It lays in beautiful layers, some very thin while some of the mudstones appear to be quite thick. We also see examples of changes in the composition of the layers, from sandstone, gravels, limestone, dolomites, etc. My question is: How do we tell the time lines of these layers? Some are likely single events (such as the thin white line we see in a particular road cut), while others are repetitive uniform layers. So, what is the time factor? Can some of the thin layers be as short as annual? Are some millennial? Is there anyway for a casual observer to make an educated guess?

    Hey im a prospective student of the university of Guyana and just want to know if the opal (fire opal) is really a mineral or a mineraloid since it dont have a crystalline form or structure?

    • @EarthandSpaceSciencesX
      @EarthandSpaceSciencesX  7 років тому +3

      It depends on the type of Opal, but almost all fire opals are opal-A where the "A" stands for amorphous. True opal-A is a mineraloid. However, many opals evolve over time and crystallize to Opal-CT, at which point water is expelled from the mineraloid and cristobalite and tridymite form as diagenetic replacements minerals.

    Why doesn't sandstone form in the bottom of lakes ? Is it the lack of a good mineral matrix that deposits from water, as in seawater ?

    • @EarthandSpaceSciencesX
      @EarthandSpaceSciencesX  7 місяців тому +1

      Mainly because sand forms and deposits in higher energy environments like rivers and beaches. Lower energy environments, like a lake, don’t typically have the energy to move large-grained material, like sand.

    At 15:31 You are seeing a sloped surface which looks like a water eroded face, but it is muscle tissue of a creature, and what you see is a sarcomere, or pinch muscles which are found in the diaphram or other areas where squeezing or contraction is followed by regular expansion. The same structure is found in Petra (Edom) in Jordan in the treasury building, carved out a red sandstone, again muscle tissue. Roger at mudfossil university has documented two DNA tested humanoid giants of about 50 and two hundred feet height, and he explains the earth is mostly body parts, humanoid and dragon. The first image at the beginning is muscle tissue of a shoulder region, it is easy to see, even from that one image, this is not from erosion, and that is impossible given the fluting is visible and not along any watercourse. Yes this is being suppressed but many geologists have simply been sucked into the British idea the earth is really really old, and there is no God. THE flood is the source of the all granite, which is flesh, and so is mudstone and shale, which is tendonous and sandstone can often be tendons.

    in inorganic limestone: did the calcium carbonate still in the first place originate from lifeforms but it has been entirely dissolved, transported, and re-presipitated into travertine, ooids, or some other formation. i.e. we could say lifeforms produced the material, but not the formation?

    • @EarthandSpaceSciencesX
      @EarthandSpaceSciencesX  4 роки тому

      Turns out that life is not required to form oolitic limestones or travertines. Travertines formed in Italy, which are famous for building construction, originate through carbon dioxide reactions associated with volcanism. All that need to be present is sufficient carbon dioxide and the right environment. Also, many evaporite deposits contain considerable amounts of abiotic calcite. Hope this helps.

    I know of a missing link in the education of geologists. They tell us that our planet Earth has the most to fear from an asteroid impact or volcano eruptions. But when we look at the many horizontal layers that we find everywhere on our planet, we clearly see the effect of a repeating cataclysm. These disasters are mentioned in ancient books like the Mahabharata from India and the Popol Vuh from the Mayans and others. They tell us about a cycle of seven disasters that separate the eras from the world. Certainly, regularly recurring global disasters cannot be caused by asteroid impacts or volcanic eruptions. The only possible cause is another celestial body, a planet, orbiting our sun in an eccentric orbit. Then it is close to the sun for a short period and after the crossing at a very high speed it disappears into the universe for a long time. Planet 9 exists, but it seems invisible. These disasters cause a huge tidal wave of seawater that washes over land "above the highest mountains." At the end it covers the earth with a layer of mud, a mixture of sand, clay, lime, fossils of marine and terrestrial animals and small and larger meteorites. Forests that existed are flattened and because of the pressure from the layers on top the wood is changed into coal. These disasters also create a cycle of civilizations. To learn much more about the recurring flood cycle, the re-creation of civilizations and its chronology and ancient high technology, read the e-book: "Planet 9 = Nibiru". It can be read on any computer, tablet or smartphone. Search: invisible nibiru 9

      Perhaps you could predict something that would be visible after such a deluge? Something NOT explainable by other natural processes?. Something that operated on a global, not just local, scale? And then point out places where evidence that this prediction is correct can be seen?
      As for myself, I also "know" that the Genesis Flood did NOT happen as literally described in Genesis unless (i) the supernatural exists, (ii) a deity as described in the bible exists and (iii) that deity is a trickster who makes natural laws only to break them as and when the whim takes him/her.
      If you remove the God Did It excuse from the scene, and make the natural assumption that (God's?) natural processes remain basically unchanged through time, then it is 100% certain that the Genesis Flood COULD NOT have happened.

      You mention PRATTs like hydroplate theory, polystrate fossils and hydrocarbon formation despite the existence of longstanding, elegant and very well understood explanations for all of them.
      It is YOU that has the closed mind - there are none so blind as those who will not see. I know this because I was once as deliberately blind as you. Luckily for me, my loving and very devout parents encouraged me to always do my best at school. Thus I discovered the undeniable power of the scientific method. In time, 1 Corinthians 13:11 kicked in. I lost faith and started instead to trust.
      Unlike you, I soon found that science was not a pick 'n' mix assortment. All its disciplines shared the same approach - methodological naturalism - so to diss one was to attack all. While parents and pastors loved to deny speciation (biology) and deep time (geology) they quite happily embraced the many and varied fruits of scientific endeavour, such as anything powered by electricity. This struck me as hypocritical. How does that sound to you as you type away on the internet?
