My Cat Goes By Many Names

Took a walk around the strange and remote ice age features of Brimham Rocks in Yorkshire today. It’s a surreal landscape and it must have been just as strange to our prehistoric ancestors.

GUYS, I HIT THE JACKPOT. So my department is in the midst of organizing all the stuff and we’re getting rid of a bunch of rocks that we’ve had lying around in bins and LOOK WHAT I FOUND. It’s a copper ore, specifically a bornite (Cu5FeS4) vein. For reference, bornite is the peacock ore, and it’s even prettier in person than in the pic. I remember collecting little pieces of bornite from rock grab bags when I was a kid, but this piece is HUGE!
