| contents | CIPWFULL is a user-friendly, stand-alone FORTRAN software program that is designed to calculate the comprehensive CIPW normative mineral composition of igneous rocks and strictly adheres to the original formulation of the CIPW protocol. This faithful adherence alleviates inaccuracies in normative mineral calculations by programs commonly used by petrologists. Additionally, several of the most important petrological and mineralogical parameters of igneous rocks are calculated by the program. Along with all the regular major oxide elements, all the significant minor elements whose contents can potentially effect the CIPW normative mineral composition are included. CIPWFULL also calculates oxidation ratios for igneous rock samples that have only one oxidation state of iron reported in the specimen analysis. It also provides an option for normalization of analyses to unity on a hydrous-free basis in order to facilitate comparison of norms among rock groups. Other capabilities of the program cater for rare situations, like the presence of cancrinite or exclusion from the norm calculation of rare rocks like carbonatite. Several mineralogical, petrological and discriminatory parameters and indexes are additionally calculated by the CIPWFULL program. The CIPWFULL program is very efficient and flexible and allows for a user-defined free-format input of all the chemical species, and it permits feeding of minor elements as parts per million or oxide percentages. Results of calculations are printed in a formatted ASCII text file and may be optionally casted into a space-delimited text files that are ready to be imported to general spreadsheet programs. CIPWFULL is DOS-based and is implemented on WINDOWS and mainframe platforms. |
