Course objectives
The lecture offer the advanced knowledge of physical chemistry principles application to the real geological systems. After pass out the student has ability (1) to construct phase diagrams for system under study, (2) solve the type of crystallization (equilibrium, nonequilibrium), (3) estimate formation conditions (p, T, composition of parent material) and, (4) derive formation path of specific rock from original to current state
