In 1998, the Sacchi group published the first article dealing with the geographical characterization of olive oils by using 1H NMR spectroscopy and multivariate statistical analysis (Sacchi et al., 1998). In this paper, 55 EVOO samples, obtained from different olive varieties and coming from four Italian regions (Campania, Lazio, Sicily, and Umbria), were...

Volcanic rocks in Campania and Pontine Islands range from mafic to felsic and mostly have silica undersaturated potassic to ultrapotassic compositions (Fig. 6.2). Mafic rocks with K2O contents close to calc-alkaline basalts have been found both as lavas and as lithic ejecta at Ventotene and Procida-Vivara. Pliocene (about 4.5 Ma) calc-alkaline rhyolites occur at Ponza, and 2 Ma old calc-alkaline basalts to andesites have been found by borehole drilling beneath the Campanian Plain north of Campi Flegrei. 

A summary of the ages and compositional characteristics of volcanism in Campania, the Pontine Island and Vulture is given in Table 6.1. Data on representative rocks are reported in Table 6.2.

The volcanic centers of the Campania Province developed inside Quaternary extensional basins along the Tyrrhenian Sea border at the intersection between NE-SW and NW-SE fault systems. The Pontine Islands form a row of volcanoes with a W-E trend, offshore the Campania Province, and along the so-called 41st Parallel Tectonic Line (Serri 1990 Bruno et al. 2000). Vulture is located at the eastern border of the Apennine compression front, in an extensional tectonic setting affecting the border of the Apulia foreland. 

The thickness of the lithosphere along the Pontine-Campania-Vulture transect increases from about 50 km along the Tyrrhenian Sea border to more than 110 km in the Apulia foreland (Calcagnile and Panza 1981). The depth of the Moho increases from about 20-25 km offshore the Tyrrhenian Sea coast to 40 km beneath the internal zones of the Apennines, to decrease to about 30 km beneath the Apulia foreland (e.g. Locardi and Nicolich 1988 Piromallo and Morelli 2003). In contrast with other zones of the Apennine chain, the sector running from the Campania Province to...
