The Geology Department is offering a grant for the development of a crystal identification guide and maps to collect baseline data on the production of gypsum in the World’s Largest Gypsum Dune Field. This project supports a citizen science program by providing essential information on the environmental and geological conditions preserving the gypsum island. The resulting characterizations of mineralogy, analyses, and photo documentation will be shared with the public through new media.
