388 Bonus round

Well, it's a bonus WoGE, so ... I've decided for a bonus image.


In this one you have to find 2 locations - united with the same loose geology - and the geologic link between them.


They have the same (+/-) scale but are in different continents.

No Schott rule, no prize, nothing ... just geology! :)

WoGE #388

Thursday, 11 July, 8:00 a.m. (GMT + 0:00)

Well, after 50+ unsuccessful attempts, 2 in a row:)

After considering astronomical observation sites (which proved wrong) I looked around, in volcanic areas, and had some luck in finding the (Patagonian) Auca Mahuida and its oil fields.

For this new challenge you should find out where is, their geology and, in this case, another important detail (but not decisive for the win).


Here it is:

No Schott's Rule this time!

WoGE #386

My first! :)

After following WoGE since (at least) #330 and after some missed ones (and many more, so hard at first glance, that I didn't even tried), I manage to be the first on #385 - a (hidro)geologic desert scenery (which, before Ole's hint, looked quasi-impossible to me).

So here's #386:



For you, new players to Where on (Google) Earth, simply post a comment with latitude and longitude and write something about the (geologic/geographic/hydrographic) feature in the picture. If you are the first, you get to host the next one.

I don't know if this one is easy or hard but, to give rookies (like myself) a chance, I invoke Schott's Rule: former winners have to wait 1 hour for each WoGE they got right.
