It is my pleasure to post a new geo-puzzle after I won Silver Fox's WoGE#170 featuring the New Idria serpentinite diapir in California. I would guess, it was the Almaden mercury mine in The Lost Geologist's WoGE#168 that triggered Silver Fox's mind to come up with New Idria, a historic Hg mine of California. On the other hand, New Idria is a type locality for benitoite, and this is what sparked my mind to give a spin to the game with an additional element. The idea is to choose a new WoGE so that it connects to the previous one by a keyword that should be provided along with the picture (for example, Silver Fox could have picked the keyword "mercury mine"). In the case of my WoGE#171, this keyword would be "type locality". The rules remain the same [the spot should be located (lat, long) and described in geological terms], but to win, one must also explain how the chosen keyword fits into the picture. The simple-to-answer question in this case would be: for what rock is this place the type locality? Let's see if anyone likes the idea.](http://pluffi.smugmug.com/Landscapes/WoGE/WoGE171/618178825_drw2V-Ti.jpg "Péter Luffi > WoGE #171
