Meringue.

Rustrel.

So much better viewed in original size.

La couleur des roches résulte des minéraux qu'elles contiennent, après avoir subi divers degrés d'oxydation ou d'altération. Les minéraux argileux, très diversifiés, jouent un rôle important dans ces teintes.
Les ocres rouges et mauves proviennent d'un mélange d'hématite (oxyde de fer) et d'argile.
L'ocre jaune est issu d'un mélange de limonite (hydroxyde de fer) et d'argile.
La couleur verdâtre est liée à la présence de chlorite, minéral argileux hydraté ferro-magnésien.
La couleur blanc-crème provient de la kaolinite, minéral argileux blanc.

The colour of the rocks results from the minerals they contain, after undergoing various degrees of oxidation or alteration. Clay minerals, very diverse, play an important role in these shades.
The red and purple ochres come from a mixture of hematite (iron oxide) and clay.
Yellow ochre is made from a mixture of limonite (iron hydroxide) and clay.
The greenish color is related to the presence of chlorite, a hydrated clay mineral ferromagnesian.
The cream-white colour comes from kaolinite, a white clay mineral.
