• Resumen

  • Publication of this special volume of the Bulletin de la Société géologique de France, dedicated to the evolution of the southern segment of the European Variscan chain, is an opportunity for the French community of Geosciences to pay a friendly honoring tribute to Philippe Rossi, a tireless promoter of geology within the important institution that is the Bureau de Recherches Géologiques et Minières (BRGM). After his secondary studies at the Lycée J.B. Corot in Savigny-sur-Orge, Philippe Rossi discovered geology at the Université Paris-Sud (Orsay), where he defended in 1975 a Doctorat thesis entitled: “Géologie et gîtologie du Cerro San Cristobal Logrosan, Caceres, Espagne”. In the wake of his thesis, Philippe joined the BRGM where he went, from the 1980s, to play a prominent role as both a geologist specialist of the Variscan chain in Europe, and a key player of the evolution and accomplishment of the French mapping program (Programme de la Carte Géologique de la France).
