Abstract

20 to 15 Kg each of 4 samples of igneous rocks were collected from different places of Mexico. These were crushed and quartered in order to homogenize them and analyze their composition for major as well as several trace elements by chemical and physical methods. Thus a stock of standard rocks has been established for international use of the laboratory because these samples have been calibrated against International geochemical references samples. This report is complemented by a petrologic and tectonic discussion of these samples.
