Rocks from the project “Interregional correlations for the Ross Orogen in the Ross Sea/Ross Ice Shelf sector of the Transantarctic Mountains: implications for the tectonic evolution of the palaeo-Pacific Antarctic margin of Gondwana" (INTERTAM, PNRA 2002/4.2)
During the XIX and XXI Italian Antarctic expeditions (2003/04, 2005/06), 645 rocks have been sampled within the aim of the INTERTAM project in northern and southern Victoria Land and in central Transantarctic Mountains. They include intrusive, subvolcanic, volcanic, metamorphic and sedimentary rocks. The investigated regions are within Cape Selborne SU 55-60/2, Carlyon Glacier ST 57-60/13*, Daniels Range SR 57-58/14, Mount Discovery ST 57-60/10, Mount Harmsworth ST 57-60/9, Mount Melbourne SS 58-60/9, Mount Murchison SS 58-60/5, Mount Olympus SU 55-60/1, Ross Island ST 57-60/6*, Sequence Hills SS 55-57/8, Taylor Glacier ST 57-60/5 and Welcome Mountain SS 55-57/4 USGS sheets.
