Geology: Andesite vs Diorite

Diorite is the intrusive and Andesite is the extrusive rocks with similar mineral composition.

[@maryseeker7590]

Very good

[@jonathansantos2271]

Thank you for talking about such things.
We need more foretellings.
Do you have a favorite kind of rock?
Why is it your favorite, so far?

[@glenwarrengeology]

I thank you. I do like Blueschist, a meta morphosed basalt. It is a facinating rock. Do you have a favourite Rock?

[@jonathansantos2271]

Does calcite count?

[@jonathansantos2271]

Your blueschist choice seems surreal like

[@glenwarrengeology]

Calcite is a mineral. But does form rocks like limestone and marble.

[@jonathansantos2271]

What if we place calcite near beach front wash ups? Would we separate sediment and sentiment?

[@LegendLength]

minecraft taught me a lot but nothing about these two rock types

[@glenwarrengeology]

At least it taught you something.

[@mafic_taco7061]

I think you meant to say amphibole for the hornblende , not pyroxene 😆. Great shots though. 👍🏼

[@glenwarrengeology]

Thanks for correcting me. I always make mistakes.

[@tammy.acklin]

Where’s you get them mate in from SA down the river a bit I got the same kind of specimens so I don’t think their from over seas

[@glenwarrengeology]

I got them from Uni, and they did not have a providence back then. But asAndesite and Diorite are common in Australia, I doubt they would be from overseas.

I am sure you quite correct in your
analysis of the rocks. But I'm sorry I just could not follow what you were saying it was that quiet and hesitant as if you were muttering to yourself. . It may be the fact that I'm hard of hearing but I could not follow you. Sorry.

[@glenwarrengeology]

Ok much appreciate your frrdback. It will help me in future videos. Thanks Harry.
