Early Miocene Antarctic Glacial History: New Insights from Heavy Mineral Analysis from ANDRILL AND-2A Drill Core Sediments

The present study deals with heavy mineral analysis of late Early Miocene marine sediments recovered in the McMurdo Sound region (Ross Sea, Antarctica) during the ANDRILL—SMS Project in 2007. The main objective is to investigate how heavy mineral assemblages reflect different source rocks and hence...
