In the last decade, the use of advanced characterization techniques at the nanoscale allowing to probe early
stages of formation of minerals in supersaturated aqueous solutions has allowed the discovery of non-
classical nucleation pathways. Here, an overview of old vs. new paradigms in the field of mineral formation
will be given, presenting a state-of-the-art of the current physico-chemical understanding of precipitation
phenomena.
