Why is some argillite so unstable in drilling environments?
Good question! Maybe it's easy to wet the muds with fluids, destabilizing them? After all they are just dried out muds...

I'm holding a limestone rock in my hand from my driveway. How old is it?

I just called my 9 y. o. son in to give me some rock questions, and of course he can't come up with one. (He's a Pectus wannabe/rock hound who will immediately look down at any old pile of rocks to see what he can find. He can spend hours in the creek bed at our camp in Tunica Hills looking for agates and fossils.) he's always asking me questions I can't answer, and he probably knows more about rocks than me anyway since he reads about them all the time.
So here are my Q's:
What kinds of classes should I encourage him to take before college? Obviously science, but anything else?
Any good books for kids you can recommend?
What are the best places to take him around BR to look for rocks?
Do you know if LSU or anywhere else offers a geology camp for kids?
Thanks!
