📢 Fuori ora il volume n. 15 di Geologicamente, in cui raccontiamo l'escursione GIGS 2024 organizzata sulle migmatiti della Valpelline (Valle d'Aosta) dall'Università degli Studi di Milano e di Catania! 🌍

[Fabiola Caso @fabiola_caso]

The seminar will show image analysis techniques for mineral phases' quantification, compositional and fabric zonations of rocks at the microscale. Q-XRMA; MFA; X-MIN LEARN softwares will be shown, using example fromvolcanic and metamorphic systems to
geomaterials analysis.

DFT presentation🥳
Thanks to @fabiola_caso (University of Milano) for presenting the results of her PhD project, which focuses on the evolution of the Permian deep continental crust of the Valpelline Series (Dent-Blanche Nappe, Western Alps)

Thanks to @GigsItalia and @fabiola_caso for the great trip across the deep crust in Valpelline (Western Alps).
I used to work with low grade...but migmatites are always "hotter" 😔

[Deformation, Fluids, Tectonics Group #UniBO @DFT_UniBologna]

Giuntoli F, Zuccari C, Petroccia A and Casoli L at the @GigsItalia fieldtrip organised by Milano Statale and Catania Universities. It was a very "hot" pleasure to see the #Permian Valpelline #migmatites and amazing outcrops with insane #garnets.

Thanks to the co-authors @AlePetro1993, Sara Nerone, @GeoMaffo, Alberto Corno and Michele Zucali, and to @EXCITE_network for the access to Micro-CT analyses of the samples.

[Fabiola Caso @fabiola_caso]

Are thin section representative of microstructures? What does it change if we analyse a sample using the XY, XZ or YZ section? Does this affect the bulk rock used composition used for thermodynamic calculation?

Do you also think about the pros and cons of innovative multiscale structural analysis of migmatitic rocks to study their tectono-metamorphic evolution? Check out the example and discussion by @fabiola_caso et al. (IT):

⚠️ Few places left for the field trip in the migmatitic rocks of the Valpelline Series! 🔥
📌 I want you to see these beautiful HT and partially melted rocks in the Valle d'Aosta 🏔️

[Andrea Pezzotta @pezzosulserio]

Happy to announce that last week @fabiola_caso published this interesting paper (in which I & @FazioUnict partecipated) on the combination of field- and remote-based analysis applied to the migmatites in Valpelline! Check out!
