Carbonaceous chondrites - CM are meteorites collected during the Italian Antarctic Expeditions since 2015 in Victoria Land and are now preserved at the repository of the Museo Nazionale dell’Antartide.
-
CRP-1 gravel-fraction core samples are clasts collected from the CRP-1 drill core (Cape Roberts) and are now preserved at the repository of the Museo Nazionale dell’Antartide. Clasts include intrusive, metamorphic, sedimentary and volcanic rocks.
-
During the XXXVIII Italian Antarctic expedition (2022/23), 126 rocks have been sampled within the aim of “MAGIC” project in northern Victoria Land. They include volcanic, igneous and metamorphic rocks, and sediment. The investigated regions are within Cape Hallett SS58-60/2, Freyberg Mountains SS 58-60/1, Mount Murchison SS 58-60/5 and Mount Melbourne SS 58-60/9 USGS sheets. Project: Magma-Ice interaction: late Miocene ice thickness and eruption tempo in northern Victoria Land.
-
During the XXXIV Italian Antarctic expedition (2018/19), 16 rocks have been sampled within the aim of “G-IDEA” project in northern Victoria Land. They include intrusive, subvolcanic, volcanic, metamorphic and sedimentary rocks. The investigated regions are within Daniels Range SR 57-58/14, Mount Soza SR 57-58/15, Ob' Bay SR 57-58/11 and Pomerantz Tableland SR 57-58/10 USGS sheets. Project: Geodynamics and Ice Dynamics in the East Antarctica.
