23rd International Mineralogical Association General Meeting

As part of its efforts to make a general meeting that is as broad and inclusive as possible, IMA2022 welcomes scientific proposals within but not limited to the main themes of the conference:

• Mineral systematics, regrouping, for example, new minerals and classification of minerals, mineral evolution, databases and data mining;

• Extraterrestrial mineralogy, covering sessions about minerals on other bodies of the solar system and beyond, planetary exploration, and space missions;
  
• Planetary interiors, regrouping sessions about the constituents of planets, and behaviour of minerals at extreme conditions of pressures and temperature ;
  
• Environmental mineralogy, biomineralogy;
  
• The dynamical world of minerals, covering sessions about mineral reactions, physical and chemical properties of minerals and of rocks, various spectroscopies, and methods of investigation of minerals.
