David Jousselin, Lydéric France, and Nicolas Estèves (a PhD student from CRPG working on granitic plutonic bodies emplacement and evolution) visited the University of Cambridge University to launch a collaboration with Pr. Marian Holness (fellow of the Royal Society) in the frame of MUSH-OCEAN project.
The objective was to learn how to measure dihedral angles in plutonic rocks with the objective to apply Marian’s approach to oceanic crust samples. Dihedral angles between mineral of magmatic rocks are wonderful tools to provide constraints on the solidification conditions and cooling rates.
David Jousselin has reassembled an old 5-axis universal stage borrowed to Geosciences Montpellier to be used at CRPG.
