[QUOTE="RottenRon, post: 54049, member: 174"] I have another thing for you guys to ponder. Bare with me here. Some time ago I was caught in a sudden Qld thunderstorm. Now this storm came over just after some road workers finished a new layer of bitumen on about 200 meters of 2 lane road. Anyway, while I was hiding under a tree next to the road, trying to stay dry, as the flow subsided somewhat, I noticed the runoff of rainwater on the road and down the gutter, had a distinctly oily slick on top. It was very pronounced and rainbowy (leave me alone, my word,,) I remember thinking at the time, "this will probably end up down the nearest creek). I'm not suggesting this is the cause of the colours on the formations you've photograph. I just thought I'd add this to the mix. Cheers, Ron. [/QUOTE]
