I can answer any general geology question (rocks, minerals, stratigraphy, geomorphology etc.). My expertise is in the geology of the Michigan Basin, PreCambrian, Paleozoic and Recent. I can answer questions concerning mining and petroleum exploration and production and the laws concerning those activities. I can also answer questions concerning stratigraphy of the Michigan Basin. I will also answer questions about mineral and rock collecting in the Basin. I won`t be able to answer many specific questions on hydrology, geophysics or geochemistry. I may be able to answer very general questions in those venues.
I have been working for the State of Michigan for 24 years as a Geologist and a Resource Analyst. I have experience with Subsurface Geology and Petroleum Geology, mining in Michigan, and Sand Dune Mining and Protection issues.

Hi Nouman, This is just my personal opinion but I think that "practical" education is just as important as that provided by an "higher level university". The only important thing is to decide, if you
Hi Maureen, This is an easy one. Yes it is selenite. It looks like a piece of a selenite rose, perhaps from Mexico. That's a collection of selemite crystale. Here's a pretty good picture of a selenite
