4e de couverture : "Cet atlas offre une vision synthétique et illustrée des minéraux et des roches magmatiques, sédimentaires et métamorphiques les plus fréquemment rencontrés. Leurs caractères généraux macroscopiques et microscopiques sont détaillés en relation avec leur composition. Les méthodes d'études sont expliquées : elles permettent de comprendre la signification des observations. Cette troisième édition, revue et augmentée, s'enrichit notamment de nouvelles fiches concernant les roches extra-terrestres, la Lune et Mars. "

Petrochronology is a rapidly emerging branch of Earth science that links time (ages or rates) with specific rock-forming processes and their physical conditions. It is founded in petrology and geochemistry, which define a petrogenetic context or delimit a specific process, to which chronometric data are then linked. This combination informs Earth's petrogenetic processes better than petrology or geochronology alone. This volume and the accompanying short courses address three broad categories of inquiry.Conceptual approaches chaptersinclude petrologic modeling of multi-component chemical and mineralogic systems, and development of methods that include diffusive alteration of mineral chemistry.Methods chaptersaddress four main analytical techniques, specifically EPMA, LA-ICP-MS, SIMS and TIMS.Mineral-specific chaptersexplore applications to a wide range of minerals, including zircon (metamorphic, igneous, and detrital/Hadean), baddeleyite, REE minerals (monazite, allanite, xenotime and apatite), titanite, rutile, garnet, and major igneous minerals (olivine, plagioclase and pyroxenes). These applications mainly focus on metamorphic, igneous, or tectonic processes, but additionally elucidate fundamental transdisciplinary progress in addressing mechanisms of crystal growth, the chemical consequences of mineral growth kinetics, and how chemical transport and deformation affect chemically complex mineral composites. Most chapters further recommend areas of future research.
