PIG: Pigmentothèque

The 'Pigmentotheque' is a database of natural ferruginous minerals, which could be used as coloring matter in rock art. Geological prospections combined with physicochemical characterization are firstly conducted in the Ardèche and Gard departments. This database @ SSHADE store the visible and near-infrared spectra of the materials.
