Hi Auspex, do you think it's not good to post pictures of the city I live on the fossil forum?

RomanK Posted September 6, 2009 Author Share Posted September 6, 2009 Have you noticed Auspex? There seems to be spoil piles everywhere. More then 100. Big and small, grey, brown, red and green.

fig rocks Posted September 6, 2009 Share Posted September 6, 2009 More then 100. Big and small, grey, brown, red and green. They wouldn't allow that over here Roman. Everything would have to be put back and replanted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RomanK Posted September 6, 2009 Author Share Posted September 6, 2009 They wouldn't allow that over here Roman. Everything would have to be put back and replanted. Fig, each spoil piles from 4 to 10 million cubic meters, it's huge amount of rocks. That was started more then 150 years ago. They aren't using the waste stowing technology, so we have new landscape element that need to be greened.

Auspex Posted September 6, 2009 Share Posted September 6, 2009 Hi Auspex, do you think it's not good to post pictures of the city I live on the fossil forum? It is, of course, entirely up to you, but I would love to see more "There has been an alarming increase in the number of things I know nothing about." - Ashleigh Ellwood Brilliant “Try to learn something about everything and everything about something.” - Thomas Henry Huxley >Paleontology is an evolving science. >May your wonders never cease!

Shamalama Posted September 13, 2009 Share Posted September 13, 2009 Great finds Roman! I agree with Auspex; post more pics of your region if you like. I'm always interested in learning more about areas outside of my region. That is what I love National Geographic Magazine so much. Nice Calamites branch in the second row, middle pic. It looks like a Bamboo twig. What are the round impressions on the far left of the rock in your first pic? Can you post a close up? -Dave __________________________________________________ Geologists on the whole are inconsistent drivers. When a roadcut presents itself, they tend to lurch and weave.

Thanks Shamalama for your positive comments, I think they are cuts of the thin stems, possibly fern ones. I do not forget your ask about trading. Will do it soon. Specially for you and Auspex Donetsk from one of the tip. Roman http://s1143.photobu.../donbassfossil/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Auspex Posted September 13, 2009 Share Posted September 13, 2009 Thank you, Roman, for the post card of your city So many trees, and the lake is lovely! Looking across to what I assume is the "downtown" reminds me of Atlanta, Georgia, here in the US, except with more trees (and coal tips).

Looking across to what I assume is the "downtown" reminds me of Atlanta, Georgia, here in the US, except with more trees (and coal tips). Hi Auspex, in 1970s Donetsk has won a Golden medal from UNESCO as the most greening industrial city in the world. It were 1 million roses in the city (1 per resident). Usually even in Ukraine people imagine Donetsk as a dirty and dusty industrial city with many mines and metallurgical plant. A lot of pipes and huge pollution. To brake such kind of imagination I posted some city 'post cards'. By the way one of the best modern stadium in Europe just opened in Donetsk in September! It's 'Donbass Arena'.

Shamalama Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 Roman, Great post card and what a beautiful city! It does a lot to change the image that western media has portrayed former Soviet cities as decaying and decrepit. Take your time and find all you can before the weather gets too cold, we can trade in the winter. -Dave __________________________________________________ Geologists on the whole are inconsistent drivers.
