Welcome to the Lab!
Directed by Dr. Gilman “Gil” Ouellette Jr., the lab’s mission is to deepen scientific understanding of Earth’s oceans;
past, present, and future.
The lab also strives to share the incredible science that already exists explaining the mysteries and wonder of the ocean, the challenges that face our mostly blue world today, and what we can learn from the conditions Earth’s oceans responded to in the past.
Sample Details:
Material –
Suspected chondrite. Possible hematite aggregate (does not streak red), possible magnetite aggregate (does not streak gray), possible manganese coated nodule (does not streak black). Difficult streak production, dark brown streak when it takes, suggesting weathered chondrite; additional testing forthcoming.
Age –
Nominal solar system accretion (~4.45 bya)
Location –
Ozark Plateau, Cadet MO
