Sorry for not blogging in a while. Once the new semester started, things have kicked into high gear. I've been doing a lot (and I mean A LOT!) of synchrotron data processing. I'm going back for the last time in two weeks, so I'm going through all my data to make sure I have everything covered. I'm also doing followup TEM work on the samples I analyzed two weeks ago, and starting to do sample prep for the next trip. All that and I've decided to take Don Burt's Ore Deposits class, mostly for employment reasons. It hasn't been so bad so far, but I think it would suck for undergraduates. I can see why all the undergrads hate Burt's petrology class.

Kelly goes back to Safford and Morenci this afternoon. Keep her in your thoughts!
