A sandy rock pool (at very low tide).

A sandy rock pool (at very low tide).
Basset Cove, Cornwall - for Pam.
I'm not sure what caused the blue in the rock.

What a fantastic picture, Andy. The ripples on the pool is fabulous. I can't think of anything that would cause the rock to turn blue - fascinating.

Thank you, Jenny. I can only think that because this beach is below what were extensive mining areas 150 to 250 years ago this could be a bi-product.

I love the patterns of light and shade in the water and sand!
I wonder if the blue bands are algal coatings? The rocks appear to be grey fine-grained muddy sitstones with thin pale sandstone laminae. It is possibly significant that the blue layers are confined to the mud-rich layers, which might offer more nutrients?

Thank you, Earthwatcher. The blue collour intrigued me too. Especially as in nearby rock pools there were bright red, orange, yellow and green stones / pebbles. But bear in mind there was a lot of mining activity here, and not just for tin, so matybe these are from the ores or spoils. I don't really know but certainly not algae.
Take care!
