Recent investigations carried out on the Talos Dome ICE core (TALDICE) revealed the presence of a local fraction of mineral dust entrapped in the ice [1-4]. Several evidences point to the ice-free areas of Victoria Land as possible sources. Here the elemental composition of 40 samples of mineral sed...
