The Centre de Recherches Pétrographiques et Géochimiques (CRPG) focuses its research on understanding the Earth system, from the initial formation of the solar system to the planet’s present-day conditions. Our research teams bring together geochemists, petrologists and geologists in a combined approach to the four scientific themes that determine the life of the laboratory :

- Cosmochemistry and Primitive Earth ;

- Magmas and Deep Fluids ;

- Tectonics, Erosion and Relief Evolution ;

- Cycles, Atmospheres, Climates.
