Welcome to IPGP's Marine Rock Repository web pages. This repository is located in Chambon La Forêt (France), at the site of the National Magnetic Observatory and located ~100 km South of Paris.
Here you will find information on all the samples curated in this repository, and that have been collected by IPGP teams during oceanographic cruises.
All the samples in this rock repository have been registered with an International GeoSample Number (IGSN). They are thus visible in the SESAR database: http://www.geosamples.org.
Each cruise web page provides sample data, together with links to cruise information and the cruise report (when available). The sample data is provided as Excel tables with all the associated information and metadata (location, date, cruise, classification description, etc.), as submitted to IGSN.
