Outcrop near Marquette, MI, containing metamorphosed peridotite pillow lavas as part of a 2.7- billion-year-old greenstone belt within the Marquette Synclinorium. Note the rounded surfaces of the pillows point toward “up” (left side of the picture). The outcrop was visited during an October field trip for EPSC 505, Advanced Physical Geology taught by Dr. Robert Buchwaldt.
