Rocks from the project “Origin and behaviour of the northern Victoria Land glacial system" (PNRA 2004/4.2)
During the XXI Italian Antarctic expedition (2005/06), 42 rocks have been sampled within the aim of the project "Origin and behaviour of the northern Victoria Land glacial system" in northern Victoria Land. They include intrusive, subvolcanic, volcanic, metamorphic and sedimentary rocks. The investigated regions are within Mount Melbourne SS 58-60/9, Mount Murchison SS 58-60/5 and Relief Inlet SS 58-60/13 USGS sheets.
