My head was spinning after exploding. Which left me with the question...'Why do I need to know this? " I am sure at some future point light bulbs will go off, and it will be clearer. Thank you, I did understand the first portion.
Rachel, for those of us who view Earth as a living being, geology is anatomy and petrology is akin to biochemistry. But as a science nut, this stuff is AWESOME!!! I LOVE me some phase diagrams!
oh my word! you are amazing! thank you so much for doing this! I wish your videos existed when I was doing my geology undergrad (2015-2019)! You are indeed covering a much needed gap! THANK YOU!
A lot of this is over my head bcuz of unfamiliarity of terms, butin spite of this your presentation has increased my interest in petrology and further convinced me that i need to study this subject formally. Im 60+ years old and have been studying this subject informally for almost 4 years(but really since I was 12), because of the interesting geologic mysteries of the area i live in and most of the attention has gone to Yosemite, fortunately or unfortunately, which is close. This has led to the surrounding geology being overlooked, which is different from Yosemite. Anyway thanks for making it reasonably understandable to me and reachable.
Thanks Rach,.. I am familiar with PDs from metallurgy. I find it interesting that Rocks can be metal or used to make metal. ..., even weirder is we eat rocks like Magnesium and Zinc. Don't know how I missed this video but glad I found it..
@@GEOGIRL And we are grateful for it! Professors sometimes don't realize what it's like to not understand concepts so they explain it with various assumptions already in place. This prevents true understanding for the students. Your videos are much more clear and bring us to a solid foundational level.
I don't know if I'll ever need to use a phase diagram but it's kind of cool to know I can! Thanks! This was way more interesting than I thought it would be. 😂💖
Oh phase diagrams… You scared the life out of me when we first met You had me confused, conflicted my mind was set But then you made sense, the logic behind your quirks got me off the fence You quantized melting of magmas, their crystallization histories and then I’d decided that all along you were really my friend Steadily teaching me the ways of nature even if I couldn’t appreciate it back when And now I marvel at your secrets, kept hidden from the next Gen
HAHA This is literally everybody's interaction with phase diagrams, except I think some people don't get passed the scared the life out of me stage lol!
@@GEOGIRL Yes I think a lot of people get turned off by them at first sight. This is most unfortunate though because they help us understand melt compositions and crystallization dynamics. It’s really hard to get people fascinated by them if they’re mind is made up though. Personally, discovering that melts and their solidified rocks have a sort of order that can be explained (something that was once mysterious) is one of the drivers for me in geology.
@@anarcho-geologist4528 Yea, I agree, once you understand it, things become a lot easier and COOLER! It is so cool how much we can predict with the information shown by phase diagrams
This is the summary we needed !!!Could you please make a video on ternary (diopside-forsterite-silica, diopside-forsteriteanorthite and nepheline-kalsilite-silica) phase diagrams?
@@GEOGIRL I am a ceramic artist. I would start with something "simple" like alumina-silica-calcia . Thanks for this, I was looking for something to show to others about saltwater. I may have to make it myself as I want the whole diagram.
Hello ma'am, first of all thank you for this informational and conceptual based video but I have some suggestions....if you would have been added that lever rule and degree of freedom calculation then it would have been a full video. Regards
@@GEOGIRL In ternary Nepheline - Kalsilite - Silica or Forsterite - Anorthite - Silica or Diopside- Forsterite - Silica. And in quaternary - Diopside- Nepheline-Forsterite - Silica. It's a bit too much but if you could make videos on these, It'd be great! Thanks.
Ahh, I see, thanks for the clarification. I will look into them. It could be that my books just don't go into that much detail on those, so it might take me a little time, but I will try to prepare a video over those! :)
Thank you for your help! I feel like you're describing this concept far more clearly than my professor did.
My head is exploding from all this packed knowledge. Thanks a lot.
Haha! Well I am so glad you learned from it, and I hope your head does not fully explode ;)

I'm preparing my first Petrology exam and this video has been extremely helpful. Subscribed!
Best of luck!! :D
You are a heaven sent angel, thank you for helping me get through these thin section reports ❤

Sorry it took me so long to watch this Rachel.
👍🏻 and full play.
I ❤️ GEO GIRL!
Thanks! Hope you liked it :)

Excellent explanation. Thanks 😊😊
This is such a good presentation. So high quality. Thanks
This was amazing! Thank you!
Thank you so much! So glad to hear it ;D
This was one of the hardest parts of Petrology for me. Thanks for helping out!
What a clear presentation, thank you for preparing this useful material for all of us!

great explanation to phase diagram :)
Thanks! So glad you found it helpful :)
Love the phase diagrams

Girl.. im still lost
Well done
Hi! Could you please do a video explaining 3-component phase diagrams?
Hello ma'am, first of all thank you for this informational and conceptual based video but I have some suggestions....if you would have been added that lever rule and degree of freedom calculation then it would have been a full video.

I wanna be good in Geology as u r 😅
Huge Thanks from India 🙏
Thank you! I am so glad you enjoyed the video, and I am sure you will be even better than me one day ;)
@@GEOGIRL thank you so much 🙏❤️
Thank's you Geo Girl.
Of course! :D
Amazing video as we expect
Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed it:)
You rock. 😄
Please upload a video on nepheline-silica-albite system
Very helpful! Could you please make a video on ternary diagrams?
Sure, what kind of ternary diagrams?
@@GEOGIRL crystallisation in ternary systems that contain a Compound that melts congruently and incongruently
@@GEOGIRL In ternary Nepheline - Kalsilite - Silica or Forsterite - Anorthite - Silica or Diopside- Forsterite - Silica.
And in quaternary - Diopside- Nepheline-Forsterite - Silica. It's a bit too much but if you could make videos on these, It'd be great! Thanks.

@@GEOGIRL alright thanks :)
Amazing content 👌
Thanks so much! :D
Could you please let me know why in igneous rock primary forsterite and quartz can't stably coexist?
I'm from India, are u from the states?
Is there really no trees any where in El Paso😅 13:31
Hello Sir.
Please share this PPT with us...
Hi there, I share the PPT slides on my insta! @geogirl_gram :)
@@GEOGIRL THANKS
I follow you on instagram
I really like you
Speaking too fast
Thanks for the feedback! ;)
You can slow the play speed. It is very fast but a LOT of info to cover in a ahort time. Pause. Rewind.
Aye
You are so cute!
