      Katherine: A working geologist, working with a university to study the field of geology. Has gone on many geological expeditions to study Himalayan topography, geology, geography, etc.
      Not much of a comparison, is it?
      Edit: Please stop trying to inform me that Cleo was a geologist. The original comment, the one in which this is a reply to, clearly states "Given that Cleo is a geologist..." And so, I have come here assuming that such a detail would be a triviality, and no one would need to make mention of it. However, that was apparently not correct. So I will speak plainly: I know that Cleo was a geologist. But she is no longer working. My comparison still stands whether or not Cleo was a geologist.

      @ritella6601 2 ปีที่แล้ว +12

      canyons are formed by fluvial activity eg by rivers cutting into the sediment and forming their own basins, meanwhile stalagmites form in karst caves, underground. So I would say its a geologically impossible build. the only possible realistical solution that I can think of is instead of treating them like stalagmites (that they acually are), we look at them like weatheres limestone that form a stone forest.
      Kunming stone forest for example. (This place is in China so it even fits the general location of the boatem mountains)

    one thing I picked up on in my intro geology class elective was that diorite and andesite have approximately the same mineral and silica content, the main difference is grain size, if it cooled fast (extrusive, possibly ejected out of a volcano) it will have larger grains and be closer to diorite, and if it cooled slowly (intrusive, likely magma trapped in the earths crust) it will have smaller grains and be closer to andesite. andesite, diorite, granite (and even basalt) are all igneous rocks meaning they formed from cooling magma.
