Petrology, Mineralogy and Geochemistry of the Upper Mantle
Petrology of the Upper Mantle is the branch of geology that studies the Upper Mantle rocks, and the conditions in which rocks form.
Mineralogy of the Upper Mantle is the branch of geology that studies the Upper Mantle minerals, and the conditions in which minerals form.
The field of the Upper Mantle geochemistry involves study of the chemical composition of the Earth's Upper Mantle, chemical processes and reactions that govern the composition of rocks, and the cycles of matter and energy that transport the Earth's chemical components in time and space, and their interaction with the Earth's spheres.
