New Hampshire Rocks!

By Laura Knoy on Monday, September 13, 2004.

The Granite state is far more than just granite- there's slate, quartzite, even gold up "in them there hills"! We'll look into the stones, minerals and rock formations of New Hampshire's undersurface and what geology can teach us about everything from earthquake risks to finding new water supplies. Laura's guests are David Wunsch, New Hampshire's State Geologist and Leland Wilder, Public Outreach Coordinator for the New Hampshire Geological Survey, Past president of the New Hampshire Geological Society and a professor of Earth Sciences at Colby Sawyer College in New London.
