@nuggetofknowledge.bsky.socialEarth Science (aka geoscience) at first glance that might just sound like geology but there's so much more...
climatology and meteorology, geography, geomicrobiology, hydrology (incl. glaciology), paleontology, oceanography, and speleology (the study of cavess.
@andersonmineral.bsky.socialIt’s Minerals Day for Earth Science Week so I thought I would share one reason why I adore minerals: the colours!! I love the deep red of this rhodochrosite from N’Chwaning mine, South Africa. #MineralMonday #GeoscienceBluesky #MineralsDay #EarthScienceWeek ⚒️🧪
@mineralsocamerica.bsky.socialMineral Monday!
Minerals Day Around the World
By Fernando Núñez Useche
October 12, 2026 is Minerals Day, part of Earth Science Week. Here we share an educational event taking place in Mexico.

@nuggetofknowledge.bsky.socialHave you ever wondered how living matter like wood becomes petrified?
One way this can happen is through permineralization which occurs when water containing dissolved minerals fills the pores and cavities of a specimen which leaves those minerals behind kind of like sediment.

@earthsciweek.bsky.social🌎 Tomorrow’s #EarthScienceWeek webinar: Critical Minerals in a Circular Economy
How can we make the most of #CriticalMinerals? 🤔
Join us TOMORROW 10/12 at 1 pm ET to discover how #CircularEconomy strategies are changing the way we manage critical minerals—from discovery to recycling & recovery! ♻️
@geosociety.bsky.socialDay one of #GSAConnects2026 is in the books, and it's also the first day of #EarthScienceWeek.
The Icebreaker, Sweet Connections! Trivia Night, Paleo X Mixer & Sedimentary Geochemistry & Paleoenvironments Project Social Hour kept thousands of geoscientists talking well into the evening.
@cires.colorado.eduHappy #EarthScienceWeek!
CIRES scientists study a wide range of Earth science topics, including the solid Earth, weather and climate, changes at Earth’s poles, atmospheric chemistry, water, and more.
