Naukluft Mountains

Namibia

May 31, 2024

Hello,

Today my geo tour group departs Windhoek.  We drive southwest towards the Naukluft Mountains.

Our first stop is the Aris Quarry.  Here we find Tertiay-aged phonolite lava that is being quarried for road aggregate.

Our guide cracks open a rock.  Using a loupe my companions find minute evidence of ancient water!

I am delighted to watch them as they are delighted to peer into the deep past.
