Panel 07: Rock: Not Always A Hard Place
Earth processes cycle so powerfully that little evidence remains of early planetary faces and flows. Critical and intriguing clues lie in the formulation of Earth rocks and minerals when compared to those on the Moon and other planets. The oldest mineral crystals on Earth, zircons from western Austr...
