The definition of the magmatic feeding system of active volcanoes, in terms of composition, time-scale of
crystallization, relation between composition of the erupted magma and structural position of vents, magma
chamber processes and architecture, is of extreme importance for the hazard evaluation. The studies that are
carried out for the definition of the magmatic systems include detailed mineralogical, geochemical and isotopic
analyses (Sr, Nd, Pb).
The Campi Flegrei caldera magmatic structure is characterized by deep and shallow magma chambers. In the
deep reservoir (20-10 km depth) mantle derived magmas differentiate and are contaminated with continental
crust. In the shallow reservoirs isotopically distinct magmas further differentiate, mix and mingle before the
eruptions. These processes generated isotopically distinct components that were variably involved along different
structures of the Campi Flegrei caldera during time. At Campi Flegrei caldera the relation between the structural
position of the eruptive vent, for the last 14 ka of activity, and the isotopic composition of the emitted magma allow
us to reconstruct the architecture of the magmatic feeding system and to infer the chemical and isotopic
composition, and the magma chamber location and processes, of the future eruption, according to the position of
the vent
