Welcome
to the Geology of Mull and Iona!
This
site was set up in late 2005 to promote the geology of
the Isle of Mull and the surrounding area. The geology
of this area is fascinating - much of it is world-famous; the purpose of this site is to make
available information, resources and
data for anyone who is interested in the geology of Mull
and the neighbouring islands.
If
you want to get straight to the interesting geological
stuff,
click here,
or on the
Geology
link above and it will take you to the geological
information pages. One of the author's ambitions is to
build up a complete definitive collection of the many
and varied rock types to be found in these Islands. The
Galleries pages have photographs of this collection. See
the Geology Page for more information.
Because
of the nature of a site like this, it will never be
complete - there will always be new content to add to it
and possibly to take away, so keep coming back and see
what's new. Updates to the site will be listed on the
News
pages - check these first for any information on
geological events such as classes, courses, trips or
talks.
If
you have any comments, please contact the webmaster at
the address below, or else fill in the comment form on
the contact page. We look forward to hearing from you.
The
page links on the left should be fairly obvious. The
Geology link takes you to pages that deal with
sites, excursions, papers, reports etc. The
Galleries link takes you to photo galleries of Mull
showing the wide variety of the geology. Use the
About page if you want to find
out more about the purposes behind the site. The
Resources page lists books, maps, memoirs and other
material which you will find useful. The
Contact page lists postal and email addresses. The
Interactive
page is for blogs, feedback and things like that. And also my Guestbook.
The
Education link takes you to a page of links for
those interested in further study. There are links to
Universities and Colleges as well as information on
Night Classes and other Adult Education taking place in
Mull.
The
FAQ is Frequently Asked Questions. And the
Glossary is a database of geological terms. I have
tried to tailor this to the geology of Mull and Iona
where possible.

the site, have fun and maybe see you in Mull some day!
