Often, when you visit the same place several times, then each time you see many objects of this place differently. This happened during another visit to the island of Samet in the Gulf of Thailand near the coastline of Thailand.
Several years ago, I considered hills, rocky outcrops and the like from the position of the version about traces of intelligent activity in the distant past of the planet (former civilizations or flight attendants): quarries, waste heaps, etc. Now the eyes were catching pictures and the brain was trying to analyze everything from the point of view of the consequences of catastrophic forces during a global cataclysm from the times of large-scale extinctions of flora and fauna, rapid mountain building, outcrops of fluidolites (water-mud flows), etc. The starting point has changed.
I suggest looking at photographs of rocky outcrops of petrified strata, similar to those that I showed in the article: "Formation of cracks in granite outlier rocks."
This article can be said to be an addition to it. And also she says that my guesses are confirmed in other places in this region. So, let's see.
Samet Island off the coast of Thailand in the Gulf of Thailand (its northern part) is, one might say, a ridge of hills that rose from the sea. Shell-like rock layers are visible. It is very likely that this is squeezing rock out of the bowels through a fault.
My opinion is that this island was formed by the heaving of sea layers rising to the surface either magmatic or cold fluids. Perhaps in the formed fault. Whether they escaped to the surface or not is hard to say now. But the fact that the rock layers were raised in the form of hills is clearly visible.
Part of the coastline of the island is not only picturesque beaches in white sand and clear sea water, but rather rocky outcrops. I once examined a couple of such places and noticed these details:
Promotional video:
1. Part of the coastline with rocky outcrops. The impression that at that time plastic or liquid stone masses were raised from the bottom or flowed down from the high regions of the island.
2. Stone exits are dotted with many cracks. They very much resemble cracks in Siberian outlier rocks: Krasnoyarsk Pillars, Koiskoe, Kuturchinskoe Belogorie, etc.
3. The photograph will not convey the structure of the rock, but the appearance and strength of the rock is similar to quartzite.
4. In places the breed has a layered structure, like a stack of pancakes.
Compare with a photo from one of the places of the Koysky Belogorie in the Krasnoyarsk Territory:
1. Koiskoe Belogorie. Also layered structure. The breed is syenite. But, I think, the processes leading to the formation of both are the same.
2. Cracks are filled with another rock - quartz. An interesting process: why does quartz begin to grow in the formed cracks?
3. Sometimes quartz veins are several centimeters thick
4. Photo for comparison - Krasnoyarsk pillars. Finely dispersed syenite filling a crack on one of the outliers on the Krasnoyarsk pillars
1. Triangular breakaway stone with smooth edges on Samet Island
2. Apparently, it was previously part of just such a structure - in the same place on Samet Island
3. Koiskoe Belogorie - also triangular "blocks", but rounded by erosion.
My impression is that these quartzite outcrops were formerly plastic layers, but somewhere in the depth. They were quickly squeezed to the surface and petrified. Erosion along cracks destroys these masses quickly enough. Isn't it a miniature megalithic remnant?
Isn't it Siberian outlier rocks in miniature? Look at the photos on the net - they are very similar despite the different scales. The fact that the rock was not initially solid, and the layers had plasticity - says photo # 4. During the uplift of this territory, the rise was uneven and some parts of the masses turned out to be higher, the plastic layers were bent.
1. Where the rock was more porous, caverns formed in it.
2. There is something similar on the Krasnoyarsk pillars.
3. I even got into the frame of the "bowls" in the rock of these sea outliers
4. Similar formations, depressions are located practically on the tops of any outlier rocks. Kuturchinskoe Belogorie
I want to share one more interesting observation. In the depths of the island, the surface consists of loose soil - sandy loam. Chernozem, fertile layer, grass sod are absent. When there are heavy rains, the water erodes the rock and such miniature stone "mushrooms" are formed:
But the second photo is a cut of the soil along the road. Sandy loam with inclusions of stones. Humus, black soil is absent.
One of the explanations is that it is washed out by rains. But in this case, the sandy loam itself should be washed out. Perhaps this is happening. Erosion - decreases the height of the hills, but the slow rise compensates for this process and the hills remain at about the same level above the water.
My conclusion is the same as in the previous article on this topic of comparisons of stone formations and cracks in their rocks on the sea coast with comparisons of cracks and "blocks" in granite and syenite rocks of Siberia and other places. All this is natural, albeit catastrophic.
