Lithosphere study

2018 Feb. 19.

The project includes geophysical, petrologic and geochemical study to have an insight into the structure and evolution of the lithosphere under the Carpathian Basin.

The project includes geophysical, petrologic and geochemical study to have an insight into the structure and evolution of the lithosphere under the Carpathian Basin. Petrologic and geochemical studies are based on numerous xenoliths from the upper mantle and the crust entrained in the widespread pliocene alkaline basalts. We also make new processing and evaluation of existing seismic sections. The results of the seismic study are evaluated together with the petrology.
