    Nice. I like pink lakes. Western Australia also has many ephemeral lakes that vary widely in pH. Like... crazy variance. As low as 2 (that's an acid as strong as lemon juice) and as high as 10 (the hardest water you're likely to find) within a few miles.

    You are right. It was Alien vs predator. They went down a giant hole made by the predators and found an ancient civilization but that is where the predators hunt the aliens at.

    Stickers. Lots of stickers.
    So, found a hole about 6 in wide by 3 in tall and who knows how deep full of this stuff. Roof was made of it but the floor was made of red dirt. Took a small sample. Any idea what it is? This was in West Texas by Lubbock.

    Also, some cool formations I found.

    Looked like a Land Shark :eek:

    It has both vertical and horizontal layers of red dirt.

    I first thought gypsum (CaSO4•2H2O), which is basically anhydrite (CaSO4) with water molecules in the crystal structure (wow, I remember something from mineralogy!).But yeah, could be anhydrite. And west TX has plenty of it around.

    Survived my first week of ops geology and I'm not even fired yet!!
