8. Mineral Composition Revelations
The walls of Antelope Canyon have revealed an unusually complex mineral composition via advanced spectroscopic study. Beyond the usual sandstone components, scientists have found strange mineral occurrences resulting from the particular climatic conditions within the canyon. These minerals help to explain the unusual light-reflecting qualities of the canyon walls and produce the different color variations seen there. Antelope Canyon is a great place for mineralogical study since some of these mineral combinations are so uncommon and have only been discovered in a few sites all around.
