More samples! These 2 samples are green argillite with hematite smears caused my faulting.  This was a cool find because we had several faults that split making two fault faces.    This allowed for slabs of rock to slide off the ribs after blasting (slightly freaky when your tapping the ribs and a giant junk of rock smashes to the ground).  Plus side it allowed me to get a double sided sample of this smearing.  Extra cool points for the fact that the dip of the smears are slightly different on both sides! Its one thing learning about faulting from a lecture and textbook reading compared to being 6000 ft. plus below the surface looking at the real thing.

So I have been very busy! I got an internship at a silver mine! I have been working there for a month now and have accumulated several awesome samples (and stories).  The goal will be to post sample pictures and stories when I get a chance.  This is a sample of cubic pyrite in grey argillite.  The pyrite located on the left side of the sample is about 3/8 of an inch wide.  This was taken from about 6500 feet below the collar (that is where the skip/elevator enters the mine).  I found this sample by accident when I was in the process of mapping a ramp that was in development.  I noticed some large pyrite in the argillite on the rib (wall of the tunnel) grabbed a lose piece, turned it over, proceeded to jump up and down and exclaim, “ Oh hell ya! Best day underground ever!”.

The fire ban in NY has been lifted so I can go back to burning stuff outside!!!!!!

My biggest problem with spring isn't that I have to go back and make sure that all my warm weather cloths fit. It's that I have to make sure the ones that do fit only have, MAX, like 5 holes burned in them.

For OC character building. Do you have any original takes on pyromancers that you have thought of?

there’s tons of possibilities for non-traditional pyromancy: blacksmiths, chefs, muscle therapy masseuses, pyromancers who live in heat geysers hidden under frozen wastlands, pyromancers who live alongside dragons, etc. i’m really interested in lavamancy, that sounds really neat too. might be because ive been looking at pictures of lava for the past few hours but there u go

so do the suicidal thoughts come with depression or anxiety, or both, or are they their own bundle of joy
