Description

Stage 1 - Compilation of cartographic information through oceanographic sampling campaigns, using trawl dredges (DR) and Remotely Operated Vehicle (ROV).

Description

Stage 2 - Study of the samples obtained in the oceanographic campaigns through laboratory analysis: X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF), X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS), Atomic Emission Spectrometry (ICP-AES), Atomic Absorption (AA) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM).
