Mineralogy of sediment core CRP-1

The mineralogy of the lower Miocene and Quaternary sediments of the drillcore CRP-1 (McMurdo Sound, Ross Sea, Antarctica) has been analysed using the X-ray diffraction method. Quartz, plagioclase feldspars, K-feldspars are the most important non-clay minerals. Amphiboles occur throughout the core in...
