Thanks so much to Urra Field Centre Urra Field Centre for the hospitality during our Oxford Earth Sciences field course to Spain! 🇪🇸 🪨



Fantastic day for On The Rocks #Geoscience students, studying the #volcanic rocks of Cabo de Gata, and El Hoyazo in Almería, Spain. Thank you Prof Nancy Riggs for your expertise and for leading the day!


Nice start to a Saturday morning! Trinity College Dublin #geoscience student presentations and discussions on the Sorbas #sedimentary basin. Next we will look at the local #geology to make our own observations and build our conceptual models for the #Messinian environment.


Great day with our Geoscience students looking at Messinian rocks in the Sorbas basin (Almería, Spain). A fascinating day with Miocene stromatolites, evaporites, and amazing trace fossils, such as bird footprints.
