Here is my favorite find from Tucson collected just off the Catalina Highway below the eastern front of the Santa Catalina Mt.s, a metamorphic core complex. Sparklies are large clusters of biotite. Also contains feldspar and quartz. Anyone familiar with these rocks? Pardon my poor photography. #geology

Biotite-rich, feldspar and quartz gneiss/mylonite?

@vickyveritas „Feldspat, Quarz und Glimmer, keinen blassen Schimmer“ was the standard reply during my Bochum Geology studies.

@ulfhenrich Perfect Ulf! I missed this somehow. Sorry, I’m so late. Thank you!
