Abstract:

[from GEOROC Introduction, "http://georoc.mpch-mainz.gwdg.de/georoc/Entry.html"] GEOROC is intended to become a global geochemical database containing published chemical and isotopic data as well as extensive "metadata" for rocks, minerals and melt/fluid inclusions. GEOROC currently covers igneous rocks from Island Arcs, Oceanic Islands and Large Igneous Provinces (Seamounts, Oceanic Plateaus, Submarine Ridges, and Oceanic and Continental Flood Basalts). GEOROC is being compiled by the database team at the Max-Planck-Institut f?r Chemie in Mainz, Germany. Presently users may search for geochemical data by bibliography, tectonic setting, geography, chemistry, or petrography.
