Geology

Every year, as part of my job, I have the privilege of visiting twenty or more significant geological fieldwork locations. Most of those trips occur throughout the year as day trips from Truro School, but the highlight of the year is a week-long trip with the U6 students to Tenerife, where we study volcanic rocks and collect data for coursework.

Over Christmas, I hope to populate the pages for Tenerife, before turning my attention to the other, I hope to the sub-pages on geological sites in Cornwall. Click on the links on the left-hand side of this page to find out how I am getting on.
