I lived on the shore for a couple of decades as an adult but never registered these rock formations. Look at what I was missing! Absolutely fascinating. I got as far as the hospital and a few grassy sections of lake front. I knew the quarry was there but didn't compute it with old volcano crater. This would have fascinated me when I was living there. I'm going to show this video to my husband and my dad, both of whom grew up in Takapuna & Devonport. I'm wondering whether these were anything they noticed as boys. I do wish TH-cam had been a thing when I was younger. Without someone enthusiastically talking about something they're passionate about and thereby intriguing me, I wasn't drawn to the books that I would have devoured.
Bruce Hayward's enthusiasm and knowledge is inspiring. I really like this channel even though I have no connection with geology but the explanations of what we see are amazing in every video. Thank you Julian Thomson.
Wow, loved this one. Bruce's literacy of the land is really inspiring. Any chance you all are interested in doing a video about how pounamu / jade / and the various types of greenstones are formed?
We have lots of WTF moments trying to interpret the bits and pieces of the Otago Harbour volcano as we walk around it. This really helped remind us of the ongoing, chaotic destruction inherent in any volcanic formation, how they're messy b's that slop and shoot 'settled' stuff all over the place. Thanks!
Love Bruces insights and commentary. After many years of curious observation as a earthmover, it was a great to encounter his book "Out of the ocean, into the fire" that had so much to add to my picture. I grew up near Pupuke but have lived in the mid north most of my life. It would be very interesting if you guys would be doing a video on the Kaikohe/Bay of islands volcanic field and surrounds. Can't afford to sponsor but can hope😊
I lived in Northcote during my Navy days. Always knew it was volcanic but never looked at he lava flows. Played for hours in the rock pools at Takapuna Beach when I was a kid. Thanks Bruce.
Watching the new volcano (Fagradalsfjall) erupting in Iceland, you can see the same dynamics he is talking about. They seem to be very similar systems.
Was going to comment something similar especially the spatter creation from "blowholes" in the lava flow crust. There is a great YT sile called Geology Hub that is covering the Icelandic eruption. Love these videos on the Auckland volcanic field having grown up there.
I love this kind of stuff. Geology is obviously important for things like finding natural resources and figuring out where to build our cities and roads and such, but sometimes just the history of the rocks is fascinating.
In Hawaii, there is the well known curse of Pele’s lava, and if a tourist, or anyone takes a piece of lava, they will experience, bad luck, and possibly death. Do you have a similar curse in New Zealand about taking volcanic rocks and lava as souvenirs? Great vid! Thanks.
Thank you for another interesting video. In the first part you mentioned the lava containing "dissolved gasses". Forgive my ignorance but how does a gas get to this state, I associate dissolving with a solid?
Thanks for watching. Open up a soda bottle and see how the froth (gas) appears - the gas was dissolved in the liquid when it was under pressure, just like the gas that is dissolved in lava.
Fascinating to see some of the things we've seen on livestreams from Iceland and La Palma as the look cooled, buried, and rediscovered as geological features.
Really enjoyed the presentation, thank you. Dynamic, clear and concise. I wish there were more videos like this, I want to know more about volcanic geology. My education has been more focused on sedimentary rocks.
I love these local knowledge lessons - thanks Bruce. Just one thing I'd suggest guys.... a lot of rustling on your microphone - did you perhaps tuck the lapel mic under Bruce's shirt? Better to sit it on the lapel, that will avoid the rustle sound - it was quite distracting.
So is there a long history of migration of the the hot spot vulcanism causing the basaltic eruptions of the Auckland region? Given the waters surrounding Auckland today the risks of phreatomagmatic events in the future must be quite high too, how do you predict vent migration?
Thanks for explaining how the land formed there and that it is safe there !I had my 4th child at the local hospital some time ago . And it is good for the general public to feel safe about were we live and that the volcano is very old and won't bother us .And school children can have an outing to see this God willing ! A seeded treasure hunt of fossils

It’s really nice learning more about NZ. Plus it’s cool to learn about Auckland’s eruption history with its many volcanoes.
Thanks for your interest :-)

Thanks for watching and appreciating the video!
Thanks for taking to explore and explain the very ground we've trodden on for decades. It's fantastic!
Glad you enjoyed it!

Thank you very much for your kind appreciation!
Excellent descriptions which make me look at Auckland’s geological features which a new lense. Thank you

Thanks - if the opportunity comes up - yes for sure
When I was a teenager a friend and I used to go to that spot and scrape through the Tuff in order to find lots a small Olivine crystals.

Thanks for watching!
Thank you! So well explained, right under our noses, how fascinating.
Cheers!
Thank you for making these short videos. They are so informative, learning heaps. 😊
Glad you like them. Thanks
Please add a playlist of all the Bruce Hayward videos
Fascinating and beautifully scientific video ... with appreciation, from Cyprus
@@morganlefey thanks for sharing your appreciation!

Lived very close to Lake Pupuke for some years,beautiful.
So Very Good, I never get tied of watching and listening
I love learning about our volcanoes, thanks for the vid!
Great! Cheers!
Thank you it’s great learning about NZ volcanoes very informative 😊
Thanks!
Outstanding, thank you. Can you/have you done any work on Mangere or Puketutu?
Hopefully soon :-)

Hornito is a Spanish word meaning ‘little oven’. It’s not Hawaiian which like its close relative Maori does not permit consonant clusters
Thank you, good point!
Good one. Very interesting terrain
Cheers!

Indeed!
Really interesting. Thank you.
Thanks for watching!
LOVE IT😀
Loving these vids 🥰

Volcanoes can be created with iron filings and sulfuric combined
Fully acceptable.
Thanks 🙂
I lava your content😉😅😅

Its never safe mother nature does her own thing its just a matter of time😦😦😢😢🙋🙋 not even gods gona save you😂😂😂
No "R"in Hawaiian language , HoRnito !!! ???
Ha, thank you for that info. It seems to have a spanish origin. Cheers
