Mineralogy, Applied Petrography and Petrology of Trieste

Università degli Studi di Trieste

The MAPPeTs research group combines petrographic, mineralogical and geochemical tools to investigate the genesis and evolution of magmas, the nature of the Earth's lower crust and upper mantle and the geological processes recorded in terrigenous sediments. In the last few decades, the skills acquired by our group have been used also for collaborations in the field of archaeometry.
