Book Synopsis Introduction to Mineralogy and Petrology by : Swapan Kumar Haldar
Download or read book Introduction to Mineralogy and Petrology written by Swapan Kumar Haldar and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2020-07-29 with total page 437 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Introduction to Mineralogy and Petrology, second edition, presents the essentials of both disciplines through an approach accessible to industry professionals, academic researchers, and students alike. This new edition emphasizes the relationship between rocks and minerals, right from the structures created during rock formation through the economics of mineral deposits. While petrology is classified on the lines of geological evolution and rock formation, mineralogy speaks to the physical and chemical properties, uses, and global occurrences for each mineral, emphasizing the need for the growth of human development. The primary goal is for the reader to identify minerals in all respects, including host-rocks, and mineral deposits, with additional knowledge of mineral-exploration, resource, extraction, process, and ultimate use. To help provide a comprehensive analysis across ethical and socio-economic dimensions, a separate chapter describes the hazards associated with minerals, rocks, and mineral industries, and the consequences to humanity along with remedies and case studies. New to the second edition: includes coverage of minerals and petrology in extra-terrestrial environments as well as case studies on the hazards of the mining industry. Addresses the full scope of core concepts of mineralogy and petrology, including crystal structure, formation and grouping of minerals and soils, definition, origin, structure and classification of igneous, sedimentary and metamorphic rocks Features more than 250 figures, illustrations and color photographs to vividly explore the fundamental principles of mineralogy and petrology Offers a holistic approach to both subjects, beginning with the formation of geologic structures that is followed by the hosting of mineral deposits and the exploration and extraction of lucrative, usable products that improve the health of global economies Includes new content on minerals and petrology in extraterrestrial environments and case studies on hazards in the mining industry

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The earlier editions of this book have been used by successivegenerations of students for more than 20 years, and it is thestandard text on the subject in most British universities and manyothers throughout the world. The study of sediments and sedimentary rocks continues to be acore topic in the Earth Sciences and this book aims to provide aconcise account of their composition, mineralogy, textures,structures, diagenesis and depositional environments. This latest edition is noteworthy for the inclusion of 16 plateswith 54 colour photomicrographs of sedimentary rocks inthin-section. These bring sediments to life and show their beautyand colorful appearance down the microscope; they will aid thestudent enormously in laboratory petrographic work. The text hasbeen revised where necessary and the reference and further readinglists brought up-to-date. New tables have been included to helpundergraduates with rock and thin-section description andinterpretation. New 16-page colour section will mean students do not need tobuy Longman Atlas All illustrations redrawn to higher standard Complete revision of text - new material on sedimentarygeochemistry, etc

Book Synopsis An Introduction to the Study of Rocks and Guide to the Museum Collection (Classic Reprint) by : L. Fletcher
Download or read book An Introduction to the Study of Rocks and Guide to the Museum Collection (Classic Reprint) written by L. Fletcher and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-04 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Introduction to the Study of Rocks and Guide to the Museum Collection This Guide-book has been designed on the same general plan as the Introductions to the Study of Meteorites and Minerals, published in 1881 and 1884, respectively. It attempts to give, from a Museum point of view, a simple sketch of the relationships of Rocks, indicating at the same time all the more important characters and pointing out their significance. In a perfect Introduction mere speculation would be avoided; and only statements would be made of which the accuracy could be proved, or at any rate suggested, by means of specimens small enough to be exhibited in proper sequence in the Cases of a Museum. Further, an ideal Introduction would be brief; and yet so far explanatory as to be easily understood by every Visitor who has had a general education and is willing to give a moderate amount of thought to the subject. But there are practical difficulties in the preparation of such a Guide-book; the whole of a rock-mass cannot be exhibited in a Museum, the causes of various characters or changes cannot be shown in actual operation, and many rocks require microscopic examination or chemical analysis for their dis crimination: yet an Introduction even distantly approaching the above ideal will doubtless be of service to those who come to study the Mineral Collections of the Natural History Museum.
