EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Iron-rich volcanic soil C013 / 5020" showcases the stunning beauty and scientific significance of iron-rich volcanic soil found in the State of Mexico, Mexico. The striking red-orange hue of the deposit vividly indicates its high iron content, predominantly in the form of iron oxide. This geological marvel was expertly captured by photographer Daniel Sambraus, revealing a rocky and bare landscape that exemplifies the arid nature of this region. The image provides an intricate close-up view, allowing us to appreciate every detail of this mineral-rich terrain. It serves as a testament to Earth's diverse geology and highlights the importance of understanding our planet's natural resources. With its origins dating back to 2011, this photograph represents a remarkable snapshot from North America's vast array of geological wonders. Within this frame lies a story waiting to be unraveled - one that encompasses earth science, volcanology, and vulcanology. The presence of haematite or iron oxide (hematite) within these rocks further emphasizes their value as potential ore deposits. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing scene captured by Science Photo Library, let us reflect on both the aesthetic allure and scientific significance it holds for researchers worldwide.
