GEOROC

GEOROC stands for the GEOchemistry of Rocks of the Oceans and Continents. GEOROC is part of EarthChem, a new consortium of geochemical databases consisting of PetDB, NAVDAT and GEOROC. EarthChem serves the international geochemical community with chemical and isotope data of igneous rocks and minerals, together with matadata about samples and analytical procedures. GEOROC currently covers igneous rocks from Convergent Margins, Oceanic Islands and Large Igneous Provinces. GEOROC is being compiled by the database team at the Max-Planck-Institut fr Chemie in Mainz, Germany.
