Explanation:
Petrology (from the Ancient Greek: πέτρος, romanized: pétros, lit. 'rock' and λόγος, lógos) is the branch of geology that studies rocks and the conditions under which they form.
Who is the father of petrology?
Sir James Hall
The Scottish geologist Sir James Hall (1761–1832) is considered to be the father of experimental petrology.
Why is petrology important?
Of utmost importance to igneous petrologic research is geochemistry, which is concerned with the major- and trace-element composition of igneous rocks as well as of the magmas from which they arose. ... These instruments are highly computerized and automatic and produce analyses rapidly (see below Geochemistry).
