What happens when magma meets shale? 🌋 New paper by Jean Bédard & co tackles this question in the High Arctic Large Igneous Province and discusses the consequences for Cretaceous #climate. Grateful and happy to have been part of this project ☺️

And for the structural enthusiasts - the mid crust is quite unique, where outcrops can display both massive to gneissic fabrics on a m-scale, of course my favourite being the massive outcrops with mingling textures.

Thank you to @luanheywood for this, a standard size styrofoam cup that went down 5,000 m in the ocean, to the sea floor, and back up (IODP expedition 390C). That’s what 500 atmospheres of pressure does.
