I'm 60 years old. Geography wasn't of interest to me during school days and for most of my adult life. Until I started working with an engineering company 10 years ago. I became a lot more interested in Geology. Nowadays I can't get enough of this kind of very informative videos. Thank God for TH-cam!
im 19. im a mechanic. didnt have any interest in this during school either but now that i havent been in school for a good few years, now i am interested
Glad to see that you are still making great Earth Science videos. Mike, your stuff is really the best out there - Thank you from a fellow Earth Science educator in a neighboring state :-)
I'm a student of geology university and I like watching video about that topic. Meantime, improve my english cause i'm not a native speaker. Thank you a lot for what you do 👍🔥
Primera vez que me alegro tanto de ver videos en TH-cam tan bien explicados por un verdadero gemologo es un placer ver su excelente trabajo y darnos tanta ilustración a todos los que amamos la geología gemas etcétera muchas gracias desde Chile un abrazo 👏👏👏👏
Thanks for the video. I have a stone gotten under the earth. The overall colour is black, but when you put it out in the sun, or shine a touch light on it, you will see tiny sparkling objects all over it. Then if you take a closer look at it, you will see tiny blue objects on it together with the white sparkling objects. So I was wondering the kind of gemstone it could be? Thanks in advance for your response
i'm in 8th grade rn and watching this for the upcoming STAAR test because i realize i have retained literally zero information from elementary school science lmao
Mike? Ive got a bit of a mystery. Ive got a rock, in the shape of a toad. What’s mysterious about it. It has all the features one would expect of a toad in life. But. I’ve taken it to a Herpetologist and they see a narrow mouthed frog trapped in this rock. Now for the rock. The rock is igneous. But the color in the stone seems to have drawn in some of the color of the frog in life. Can you shed any light on this?
It seems he got things mixed up with addressing how rocks cool to how they form. The fine glassy ones have cooled slowly(extrusive) and the coarse ones with large visible minerlas have cooled faster (intrusive).

Likewise I'm 60 years old and find the orgins of rocks fascinating but in secondary school I just couldn't relate to it
I am a retired and re empliyed professor of medical science.i am a rock hound as well.this video is very informative.the way he explains simply great

Thank you very much, in this hard times, youtube is a great way to get basic knowledge besides crappy online lectures
Awesome video, clear and easy to follow and super helpful 😃
Very helpful for teaching a Geology Block of study to middle school pupils. thanks for the videos!
PLEASE MAKE MORE SUCH VIDEO
Amazing explanation, would love for you to explain the characteristics and then tell us what type of rock it is but also the name Love the vid
Thank you. That was an excellent informative video

May God bless you brother. Very beautiful video . Maashaallah tabaarakallah
Very nice voice, content and to the point 👏👏👏
Wow Great video. thanks!
What is the difference between the layered sediment vs banded crystal in metamorphic rock?

Wow ❤❤❤ love from India 🇮🇳
0:16 these rocks remind me of the rocks you get from the fake gold dig thing where there's like a 1 percent change of being actually gold.
Thanks you are the only one i understand 😅😅
Thanku so much ❤

Tysmmm
I have this rock and I don't remember exactly where I got it. Possibly Iceland many years ago. I would like to post a photo of it. How can I do that?
Hi am Range j ug . thanks it's nice teach
W video
you missed pyroclastic rocks such as welded tuff in your definition of igneous rocks
The link to dl sheets is broken where can I dl them please? Thanks
Sorry, reposted everything here: mikesammartano.com/videos/

I saw this video some hours ago
Would the vesicular texture instead come from weathering?
Not really i think vesicular texture specifically applies to pumice
🙏🙏 this 👍

I would recommend you check out Rodger from mudfossil University it would explain everything
@@dannyboy2750 isn’t that the guy with the channel with huge out crops of rocks and claims veins of minerals are the veins of these giants?
🤨
❤❤❤❤❤❤
🎉
:) ty
The only problem with this video is that it ends.
😅

You're actually wrong. The video is correct.
Please, I need an Arabic translation for your videos 😭😭😭
may be .... igneous rock ?
I found basalt
you're wrong that's progressive rock
