abstract: >
  MINERALCO (Mineral Intelligence Network for Equation-of-state Research, 
  Atomic Lattice COmputation) is a seven-parameter computational framework 
  for the systematic characterisation of mineral behaviour under the extreme 
  pressure and temperature conditions of Earth's interior. The framework 
  integrates the third-order Birch-Murnaghan equation of state with 
  Mie-Grüneisen thermal corrections, providing complete thermodynamic 
  description of minerals from 0-363 GPa and 300-5000 K.
