Welcome

Welcome to the Mineralogy, Geochemistry, Petrology, & Volcanology (MGPV) Division website on GSA's Connected Community.  Our mission is to promote awareness, teaching, study, and research in Earth’s materials, chemical cycles, processes, and resources, areas fundamental to sustainable resource management, hazard mitigation, and Earth and planetary exploration primarily by organizing and sponsoring sessions at the national and sectional meetings.  In addition, the Division sponsors both a Distinguished Geological Career Award and an Early Geological Career Award, student research and travel grants, and a Joint Reception with its Adhering Societies.
