Petrology is the study of the chemical and mineralogical composition of rocks and their classification. Petrology and geochemistry are strongly aligned. Petrologists might be involved in field mapping projects, analysis of groundwater/rock interactions, petroleum and mineral exploration and extraction, or environmental impact analysis.
