Abstract

PrefaceThese Conference Proceedings contain the selected papers of the 9th All Russian petrographic conference with international participation “Petrology of magmatic and metamorphic complexes” which was held from 28 November to 2 December 2017 in Tomsk. The conference was organized by the Faculty of Geology and Geography of the National Research Tomsk State University. It was supported by Russian Foundation for Basic Research and the Government of the Russian Federation (grants No. 17-05-20572, 14.Y26.31.0012). The Program Committee included the members of the Russian Academy of Sciences N.L. Dobretsov, V.A. Koroteev, M.I. Kuzmin, V.V. Reverdatto, V.V. Yarmolyuk, Professor of the Carleton University (Canada) R.E. Ernst, Professor of the University of Salamanca G. Gutierrez-Alonso, Professor of the University of Wyoming K. Chamberlain and other famous scientists.The presented materials combine the results of a structural and compositional study of magmatic and metamorphic complexes in Europe, Asia and North America. Issues of petrology, formational analysis, geodynamics and mineralogy of crystalline complexes of the lithosphere were considered. This forum became a convenient platform for wider exchange of scientific information between specialists from higher education institutions, academic institutions and companies. Section for young researchers with the aim of developing their scientific and creative potential in the field of modern petrology was foreseen by the conference program.We thank all participants for the initiative and active support of the forum.Organizing Committee
