SESSION 2: Petrology, Geochemistry & Geochronology
(Conveners: Daniela Gallhofer and Christoph Hauzenberger)

This session focuses on (1) metamorphic petrology dealing with mineral equilibria, PT evolution of rocks, timing and duration of metamorphism/reactions, crustal/mantle fluid related processes; (2) magmatic petrology and geochemistry including recent analytical developments; and (3) various aspects in geochronology.

SESSION 3: Applied Mineralogy, Ores & Geomaterials
(Conveners: Dietmar Klammer and Bernd Moser)

This session includes research on raw materials (metals, industrial minerals, building stones, etc.); material sciences; genesis of ore and mineral deposits; cements and ceramics; archaeometry, technical applications and field studies.
