El Mur geològic

Do you know what geological processes are? What is the effect of erosion, sedimentation or volcanism? You will find out at the Geological Wall of CosmoCaixa.The Geological Wall of CosmoCaixa is made up of seven large real pieces originating from different geological processes, which have contributed to shaping the structure of the planet.The Geological Wall is one of the emblematic elements of CosmoCaixa. Each section illustrates a geological structure and is accompanied by an experiment that shows the geological processes that originated it. Some are surface processes, such as erosion and sedimentation, and others are internal processes, such as volcanism, faults or folds.With geology within arm's reach, we will be able to enjoy the beauty of seven rock pieces from various places, with a total length of 24 metres and a combined weight of more than 90 tonnes. Each one illustrates a geological process that has been of fundamental importance in the structure and formation of the planet.
