MinPet - Mineralogical and Petrological Data Processing System

Richard, L.R. 1995. Mineralogical and petrological, data processing system for Windows, version 2.02. Minpet Geological Software-Logiciel Géologique Minpet, Quebec.

Very good software package with a easy user interface. The most powerful features are mineral formulae recalculations and mineral classifications (the best on the market). MinPet also involves many whole-rock classification and geotectonic plots. Advanced are spiderplots. Apart from that it is possible to obtain simple descriptive statistics characterizing distribution of individual major and trace elements. This programme performs no petrogenetic or normative calculations, with a sole exception of the CIPW norm.
