I love the explanation for the rocks! I really love that you elaborate on the important things! Thank you so much, I’ll be coming back to this video many times
Thanks Allison , it was really useful and one of the best explanations about rock classification I've ever seen. I'll be grateful if you put a like for the chart .
Thank you for your time doing this video for the people. I am learning on my own. Could you give me some keys to differentiate an amphibole from a pyroxene (horblende vs augite) . Thank you
Absolutely! The easiest way to distinguish the two is their cleavage. Amphiboles exhibit two cleavage planes at ~120 and ~60 degrees. Pyroxene exhibits two cleavage planes at ~90 degrees!
I think it is harder when you start your career to know the difference between sand, clay, silt and rock. Honestly you should make a video on it in the field.
You’re a natural teacher, this is excellent!
Thank you. You are one of the most articulate and informative instructors that I've encountered. I will continue to follow you. Keep up the good work.
Thank you, Robyn! That means so much to me! ☺
Very useful video for amateur rock hunter like me.thanks and regards.

Great idea, Isaac! I'm hoping to post some videos from the field in the future!
Hi
You lost me at English system, think you were looking for imperial system
Yep! Sorry, my mistake. :)
Geologist need to pick a root language. Latin or Greek. Just pick one. We only need one. Thanks :)
Igne in Sanskrit is called Agni, means Fire. That means rock from Fire (magma)
