Department of Mineralogy , Petrography and Geochemistry

Department of Mineralogy, Petrography and Geochemistry is the oldest Earth science department at the AGH University of Science and Technology. It was created in 1919 as one of the first six departments of the Academy of Mining and was initially named as the Department of Mineralogy and Petrography. The Department was organized by Professor Józef Morozewicz (1865–1941) who chaired the Organizing...

Coal Geology and Geochemistry

24. Petrography and Geochemistry of Red Sea Dolomite

Examination of piston cores and, particularly, sediments collected by the Deep Sea Drilling Project has shown that authigenic dolomite occurs in a wide range of sedimentary associations. While the trace to a small percentage of dolomite often encountered in pelagic carbonate sequences may be a result of authigenesis under "normal" deep-sea conditions, the few studies to date seem to indicate th...

Petrography and geochemistry of the Kahrizbeyg intrusion, southwest of Zanjan

The Kahrizbeyg pluton is located northwest of Iran in Central Iran zone. It is emplaced into the Cretaceous limestones in which contact metamorphism has happened. Meanwhile, rock fragments of this pluton are found in conglomerate units of Early Oligocene Lower Red Formation. Therefore, the relative age of pluton is between Cretaceous and Oligocene. The Kahrizbeyg pluton consists of granite and ...
