Imaging of chemical and structural processes in minerals (ICSPM)

Chemical and structural changes and processes in crystals of minerals, such as growth or domain zonality, alteration and recrystallization will be studied through surface visualizations. A combination of electron microprobe (EPMA), laser ablation (LA-ICP-MS) and Raman spectroscopy methods will be applied. Selected metamict phases with U and Th content will be monitored, as well as high-quality crystals of the olivine group minerals and amorphous opals.
