ncat JR6 Halite, Pink Lake, Meningie, Murray Riverlands, Murray Basin, South Australia

February 8, 2024 Steve Australasia Australia South Australia

A close up photo of the specimen Judy Rowe uploaded to Mindat in 2014 (https://www.mindat.org/photo-615149.html). The pink colour has disappeared. That is because it is caused by a bacteria, and that bacteria has gone on holiday. Probably Global Warming 😆. Width of view 14.5mm. Stack of 48 images.
