Friendly annual reminder to only deep-fry your dinosaurs out-of-doors this week! Not sure what the heck I'm talking about? Check out this great infographic made by the infamous @Paleontologizin that tells you ALLLL about how your turkey is in fact a dinosaur!

It took out my beloved dioptase, but I’ve still gotta support kyanite to win #MinCup24 - aluminosilicate polymorphs are just so useful (and pretty)!
Mineral Cup #MinCup@MineralCup1 Oct 2024
#MinCup24 Finals: #Rhodochrosite vs. #Kyanite Rhodochrosite, also known as Rosa del Inca is a carbonate that is a mix of utility and charm. Blue blades of Kyanite are distinctive at first glance, but unmistakable with their directional hardness. VOTE: mineralcup.org/2024/vote/r5m…

Things are slowly getting exciting at the #MinCup24: #Titanite and #Calcite are currently tied. Many of the classics have already been eliminated and will be back next year. Is this an omen for #calcite? Which of the two will take on #Rhodochrosite?
Actual bracket of the MinCup. In round 3, there will be the matches perovskite vs. stibnite, wavellite vs. dioptase, rhodochrosite vs. either titanite or calcite and kyanite vs. either charoite or topaz.

I can’t tell you HOW many times I tell this to people. Best thing @AGU_SciComm ever taught me is that it is FAR more difficult to explain something complicated using simple words than in jargon.
