I finally joined the migration to the bluer skies. Find me there as @kristinadunkel.bsky.social


I usually prefer working with thinsections, but sometimes 3D samples are fun as well! Here some gypsum growing in black shale from Oslo. Field of view ca 10 µm. #electronmicroscopy

Check out the first announcement of this workshop about "Deformation of the lithosphere" that will be held in Paris, France, in February 12-14, 2025. See you there!

I usually avoid clay minerals if I can, but I have to admit that they can be pretty! Here coating pore space in basalt. (The blue stuff is epoxy.) #ThinsectionThursday

Looks like this amphibole is trying to tell me something! Unfortunately, it is pointing right toward the edge of the thinsection... #ThinsectionThursday

Beautiful geopetal indicators in this basalt core at the Faroese Geological Survey, #Jardfeingi. The filling of the vesicles indicates what used to be horizontal.

Exciting first day of the #CO2Basalt @NjordUiO field trip / discussion meeting on the Faroe Islands! Something for everyone: Interesting #geology from basalt flows to glacial valleys and zeolites. :)

This mineral under the electron microscope looks like the corner of a well-loved book. :) Does anyone want to guess what this is? Hint: It’s an ore mineral. Width of the image is ca. 100 µm. #MineralMonday

While some of my @NjordUiO colleagues are dazzling us with pictures from Lofoten, I've finally explored Oslo's geology some more. Shales, sills, faults, ... Not too shabby either.

We have an age! Check out our latest paper on dating lower-crustal earthquakes! We combined apatite U-Pb data with microstructural observations (EBSD, CL). Open access! @MicroLuca @NjordUiO authors.elsevier.com/sd/article/S00…

I just laminated A3 maps for a field course next week. Finally, I feel like a proper geosciences teacher. 😅
