This includes many varieties of marble, named according to their colors. Argillaceous Limestone.--A mixture in which clay attains the proportion of sometimes 25 or 30%, at which limit it possesses the most desirable properties for the manufacture of hydraulic cement. Albereze of Florence is a mixture of Calcite and Clay. Clay slates sometimes give limestone a schistose texture. The spotted marbles from Carcassonne are examples. These marbles have red-brown spots, resembling drops of blood. The Campan marbles (Pyrenees) have a schistose texture, and are composed of green or brown slates enveloping veins of white or rosecolored marble. Cervelas Marble should be classed here also. The argillaceous material mixed with these limestones may be classed as argillaceous schists. Siliceous Limestones contain 48% of Silica. They have often a conchoidal fracture. This is the character of the limestone of St. Ouen. Sometimes the Silica is in the form of distinct Quartz grains. Sandy Limestone.--Sometimes the Quartz envelopes the sand in such quantity and takes such regular crystalline forms, as to justify the impression that it was a sandstone crystallized (Gres crystallizi de Fontainebleau). Glauconilk Limestone is an ordinary Siliceous limestone, containing globules of Glauconite of a blackish or yellowish-green color. It is found in different geological systems; in the Nummulite of the Alps, in the lower limestones of Paris, and in the Silurian in Russia. Ferruginous Limestone.--Of a brown or yellow color; often porous; compact. It is found in the Transition and Jurassic formations. Ferric hydrate is often found in it. Travertine.--A compact limestone. Color: grayish, or yellowish-white. It contains cavities which are supposed to have been..

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first field guide that allows amateur rock enthusiasts to identify basic rocks and rock formations in a systematic way Many of us are fascinated by rocks—but identifying them can seem daunting. It’s often tricky even for geologists, who rely on experience, intuition, and in-depth familiarity with rock-forming components. Rocks and Rock Formations allows everyone, amateur or professional, to successfully distinguish these amazing masses of minerals, using only careful observation, a magnifying glass, a pocket knife—and a bit of patience. Jürg Meyer provides a structured approach to the identification of all rocks within the three groups: sedimentary, igneous, and metamorphic. Bringing together more than 530 diagrams and photographs to illustrate essential characteristics, Meyer highlights some basics on rocks—their mineral constituents, structures, textures, fossils, weathering patterns, and more—which are important for a determination. The main part of the book is a handy and thorough identification key, which takes into account all possible rock variations, mixtures, and structural differences. The concluding section of the guide delves into rock systematics. Assuming little prior experience or knowledge, Rocks and Rock Formations is an invaluable resource for rock enthusiasts everywhere. Suitable for beginners and amateurs Helpful, systematic identification key Exploration of all types of rocks More than 530 diagrams and photographs

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A practical guide to the methods in general use for the complete analysis of silicate rock material and for the determination of all those elements present in major, minor or trace amounts in silicate and other rocks that are routinely, commonly or occasionally determined by methods that are considered to be essentially chemical in character. Such methods include those based upon spectrophotometry, flame emission spectrometry and atomic absorption spectroscopy, as well as gravimetry, titrimetry and the use of ion-selective electrodes. Separation stages are described in full, using precipitation, solvent extraction, distillation, and ion-ex procedures as appropriate. The new edition has been fully revised and updated.

Book excerpt: The trend towards a more quantitative approach in structural geology has stimulated the development of a number of techniques for determining the strain in deformed rocks of which the most widely used is one called the Rf/&fgr; method. With more than 100 applications of the technique published in the literature this is a timely work, describing as it does the practicalities of the method and its recent refinements. The comprehensive collection of standard graphs, indispensable for the determination of the strain, has never previously been widely available.

Download or read book A Practical Guide to Rock Microstructure written by Ron H. Vernon and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2018-12-06 with total page 445 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A clear understanding of the processes responsible for observed rock microstructures is essential for making reliable petrogenetic interpretations, including inferences made from chemical and isotopic analyses of minerals. This volume presents a comprehensive survey of rock microstructures, emphasising basic concepts and the latest methods, while highlighting potential pitfalls in the interpretation of the origin of rock microstructure. Richly illustrated with over 250 colour photographs, including more than 10 percent new photomicrographs and several mesoscopic images, it demonstrates the basic processes responsible for the wide variety of microstructures in igneous, metamorphic and sedimentary rocks. This second edition includes extensive updates to the coverage of igneous rocks as well as recent ideas on physical processes in migmatites and partial melting of sedimentary rocks. This practical guide will continue to be an invaluable resource to advanced students and early-career researchers of mineralogy, petrology and structural geology, as well as professional geologists and material scientists.
