The researchers will explain the current state of the work and what it means to drill in the Ivrea-Verbano zone. The DIVE2 project involves drilling a few kilometres to cross the boundaries of the Earth's interior and reach the possible crust-mantle transition identified in the Valsesia area, in the municipality of Vocca. An international scientific objective that starts from an area studied by geologists for decades. The meeting is promoted by the Unione Montana dei Comuni della Valsesia together with the municipalities of Vocca, Balmuccia and Varallo, as part of the Sesia Val Grande Geopark UNESCO. Admission is free and the evening is open to everyone.
