ISPET - International Seminars of Petrology
Second Seminar: "High Temperature Metamorphism and Crustal Melting"
Granada (Spain), March 28 – April 4 2004

We invite applications to the Second ISPET Seminar on "High Temperature Metamorphism and Crustal Melting".

Period: March 28 (arrival) – April 4 (departure)
Venue: Departamento di Mineralogia y Petrologia, Universidad de Granada, Granada (Spain)
Participants: the School is limited to 30 participants at graduate level, with priority for students from partner institutions (two for each partner)

Program: The Seminar will consist of five days of lectures and an excursion to the dacites of El Joyazo, which contain partially melted restitic enclaves.
Topics covered in the Seminar will include: Tectonic settings of HT metamorphism and crustal melting; Fluid behaviour during (and influence on) partial melting, in its theoretical, experimental and field-based aspects; HT metamorphism prior to melting (and/or melt-absent); HT metamorphism in the presence of melt; Granulites and migmatites in their various aspects, including studies of xenoliths; Anatectic granites: geochemistry, volatiles, experiments, rheology and mobility in the crust; Thermobarometry and thermodynamic modelling in HT and anatectic rocks; Geochronology of HT rocks and anatectic granites.

Preliminary list of lecturers: F. Bea (Uni-Granada, E), I. Braun (Uni-Bonn, D), B. Cesare (Uni-Padova, I), L. Kriegsman (Naturalis, Leiden, NL), D. London (Uni-Oklahoma, USA), M. Raith (Uni-Bonn, D), AB Thompson (ETH-Zurich, CH), D. Waters (Uni-Oxford, GB), IS Williams (ANU-Canberra, AU).

Registration Fee: ¤ 250.00 covering accommodation, full-board treatment and teaching material. We expect to be able to give students a small contribution to travel expenses.
