Rocks from the project “Crustal accretion of the paleo-Pacific margin of Antarctica in the Phanerozoic"
During the IX Italian Antarctic expedition (1993/94), 274 rocks have been sampled within the aim of the project "Crustal accretion of the paleo-Pacific margin of Antarctica in the Phanerozoic" in northern Victoria Land. They include intrusive, subvolcanic, volcanic, metamorphic and sedimentary rocks. The investigated regions are within Cape Hallett SS 58-60/2, Coulman Island SS 58-60/6, Daniels Range SR 57-58/14, Ebbe Glacier SR 57-58/16, Freyberg Mountains SS 58-60/1, Mount Murchison SS 58-60/5, Mount Soza SR 57-58/15, Ob' Bay SR 57-58/11 and Welcome Mountain SS 55-57/4 USGS sheets.
