Summary edit

Description
English: Blue-green shale from the Coleraine formation is a fine mixture of hematite and limonite in a greenish iron-clay matrix. The Coleraine formation is a Cretaceous period geological formation in Minnesota that contains sediments and fossils from the Western Interior Seaway approximately 90 million years ago. This layer was exposed by iron mining on the Mesabi Iron Range. This rock was found in Hill Annex Mine State Park in Calumet, MN. The image was taken with a ZEISS Smartzoom 5 microscope at 335X magnification using extended depth of field.
