Banded Iron Formations - BIFs
Show Notes

Join us today as we discuss one of the more important ancient rock formations - Banded Iron Formations or otherwise known as BIF's in the geologic community.  Wherever found, they provide us with Iron ore - some of the best on the planet.  In this episode, we delve into the geologic story of how these important and beautiful rocks formed.  There is some newer research that has altered some earlier thinking on BIF formation.  We hope you enjoy.

We now have a live Mobile App for iOS and Android. There you can learn all the basics of geoscience with our CampGeo content, purchase a visual audiobook on the Geology of Yellowstone National Park, and listen to past PlanetGeo episodes!
