The petrological and geochemical interrogation of mantle diamonds and their inclusions provide the best empirical method to study the deep carbon cycle over geological time. But what do diamonds teach us about the history of the mantle? About the crust to the deep mantle interaction over time? However, it is not known if the present models of formation are all correct, if some are mutually-exclusive, or if some are simply wrong. For example, it is agreed that diamonds are metasomatic, but the specific nature of these fluids are still debatable. In this session we propose to address what we know, and what we need to know about diamond-formation in the mantle and the cycling of volatiles throughout the Earth. We welcome all petrological, geochemical, experimental, and theoretical contributions.

Food for good

food for good

As of 2015, Palacongressi di Rimini offers its clients the opportunity to recover leftover food from their events and donate it to charities . Palacongressi endorses Food For Good - from meeting to solidarity, an initiative born out of a collaboration between Federcongressi, Food Bank and Equoevento. Every year in Italy, over 6 tons of food go to waste; at the same time, there are 10 million people living in poverty, 6.3 of which in conditions of absolute poverty, including 1 million children between the ages of 0-5 years. The contribution of organisers and exhibitors at the Palacongressi is therefore of major importance: with no additional costs and in agreement with Summertrade chefs, the catering company of the Rimini Fiera Group and official partner of the Palacongressi, menus are planned which are suitable both for the guests' needs and for the conservation and transport of any leftovers, resulting in a worthy act of social responsibility for the local area. The results and the feedback we have had in the first months of the project speak for themselves. Contact our staff for more information: always ready to help guide your choice.  The association chosen by Palacongressi is Opera Sant'Antonio di Rimini, a group of volunteers that manages the city's soup kitchen.
