Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Practical Field Geology Geological maps are just as necessary as ordinary maps of mine Workings, and are not much harder to make when one knows how to go about it. It is the lack of this knowledge which is a serious handicap to many mining men who are naturally keen and intelligent Observers, but who fail to record and corre late their Observations. They Often carry an immense amount of geological data in their minds and make use Of it when looking over their mine maps; but such mental pictures lack the graphic quality found only in good geologic maps and sections, which usually meet with instant approval on the part Of practical men. Geological literature usually deals with results rather than with the methods of Obtaining them, and the terms employed are Often of a highly technical nature, so that the text is more or less unintelligible to one who has not had training in the subject.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Outlines of Field-Geology AT the request of the Lords of the Committee of Privy Council on Education I gave, in the month of August, 1876, at South Kensington, two lectures upon geological maps and instruments of surveying. These lectures formed part of a series designed for teachers, and in illustration of the Loan Collection of Scientific Instru ments at that time exhibited. Treating the subject allotted to me in what seemed likely to prove the most useful manner, I dwelt more specially upon the methods of Observation requisite in ordinary field-geology and endeavoured to show how, by the practice of these methods, geological maps and sections, representing in condensed form the facts established by field-work, could be constructed. The lectures were published in pamphlet form later in the autumn of the same year. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Practical Geology and Mineralogy, a Short Course in Mining Science, Designed for the Student, Miner, Prospector and General Mining Man: Written, From the Standpoint of a Practical Field Man, Revised Edition With the prospector's instinct for new fields and with a firm belief that a common school educa tion qualifies any one to understand basic principles of any science, when presented in common every day language, the well meant friendly advice had to go into the discard. The occasion for a second edition should be conclusive evidence that the author's estimate of the ability of the average person was not wholly incorrect, as no work lacking in substantial merit can well have a renewed lease of life.

Book excerpt: Describes the methods, procedures, and specialized equipment of field work in geology and includes a guide to making maps of specific areas. A guide to advances in the increasingly broad and interpretive discipline of formation mapping theory. Thorough, yet compact enough for use in the field, it consists of brief descriptions of textures and structures useful in interpreting depositional environments, kinds of volcanic activity, and plutonic events and conditions. Included are procedures often reserved for the laboratory or office: staining rocks, correcting orientations of current indicators, constructing profile sections of folds, measuring strains, making photogeologic interpretations, and more. Covers pre-field considerations, methods of observation and measurement, recognition of key geologic features, and preparation of a report. Illustrated with composite drawings

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Structural and Field Geology: For Students of Pure and Applied Science This Handbook addresses itself, in the first place, to beginners in Field Geology, but I hope it may be found useful also to students who are preparing for professions in which some knowledge of Structural Geology is of practical importance. The amount of geological training demanded varies, doubtless, with the nature of the profession. Mining engineers, for example, must acquire a knowledge of many details which civil engineers, architects, agriculturists, and public health officers can afford to neglect. Nevertheless, if Structural Geology is to be of service to a professional man, it must be studied in a systematic manner. Without an intelligent appreciation of the subject as a whole, it is very hard or well-nigh impossible to gain an adequate working knowledge of any particular part. In the following pages, therefore, the subject is set forth mainly from the point of view of pure science. The student of applied science, however, should have little difficulty in distinguishing between matter of general interest, and that which is of special importance to him, as bearing directly on his own professional pursuits. To help in this discrimination two sizes of type have been employed - the smaller type being commonly reserved for details or discussions of import mainly or exclusively to students of pure science. With regard to the matter in larger type, the intelligent student will use his own discretion. To others than mining men, for example, the chapters dealing with ore-formations will not call for much studious consideration.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Advanced Text-Book of Geology: Descriptive and Industrial Yet another word: The Author requests his brother geo legists who may glance over these pages to remember that they are not intended to contain an exposition of his own peculiar views, but rather to exhibit an elementary outline of the science as now established by the leading workers in Britain, France, Germany, and America. The main object has been to render the student such assistance as will enable him to proceed in the field as a practical observer, and to read with appreciation the higher treatises, special mono graphs, papers, and new discoveries of others. To further this object mention is made, at the end of each section, of the principal works devoted to the department in question to have done more would have been to enter on the field of speculative geology - a subject that lies beyond the scope of an Educational Text-book.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Engineering Geology There are probably but few people of observation and practical experience who doubt the value of proper geological training for the engineer, since he must be prepared to meet and often to solve many problems which involve geological principles. For such knowledge it is necessary that the engineer Should have adequate training in at least those fundamental principles of geology which relate to engineering problems. Among the important questions which the engineer has to consider are the character of the common rocks in their use for building stone and road material; the structure of rocks in relation to tunneling opera tions, dam and reservoir foundations, landslides, etc.; the geological conditions affecting and controlling underground water supplies; the relation of soils to sewage disposal and water purification, etc. More over, some familiarity with such materials as fuels (coal, oil and gas), clays, cements, etc., is also necessary. There may be difference of opinion as to whether the civil engineer should be grounded in abstract geological principles and afterwards allowed to apply them in the field, or whether the exposition of the necessary principles should be illustrated in each instance by actual cases, which show the application of the principle. The first method does not usually appeal to those who have had much practical experience, nor does it find much favor with the engineering student; moreover, it can hardly be considered successful from the pedagogic standpoint.
