Book excerpt: CRC Practical Handbooks are a series of single-volume bench manuals that feature a synthesis of the most frequently used, basic reference information. These highly abridged versions of existing CRC multi-volume Handbooks contain largely tabular and graphic data. They provide extensive coverage in a scientific discipline and enable quick, convenient access to the most practical reference information...on the spot! Leading professionals in their respective fields collaborated to provide individuals and institutions with an economical and easy-to-use source of classic reference information. The CRC Practical Handbook of PHYSICAL PROPERTIES of ROCKS and MINERALS, prepared by leaders in their specialties, has been constructed to serve as a convenient, compact, yet comprehensive source of basic information. The technical data have been compiled and selectively edited to provide an organized and definitive presentation of the physical properties of rocks and their constituent minerals. The format is primarily tabular and graphical, for easy reference and comparisons. There is also instructive textual material to present, explain, and clarify the data. This edited and abridged version of the CRC Handbook of Physical Properties of Rocks, published in three volumes in 1982 - 1984, will serve as an easy-to-use source of current and useful reference information.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Rocks, Minerals and Stocks Owing to differences in speed between the inner and outer portions of the great spheroid of whirling gas, the outer portion separated into rings, which broke into pieces and the pieces wound themselves up into smaller spheroids. Other rings separated from these and also from the central mass and broke up into other pieces, and so on, until we find our Solar System is a system of moons circulating around planets which in turn circulate around a great central mass or Sun. Old Saturn still has a couple of rings and a lot of moons racing around him, showing that at one time the Old fellow was a young fellow and delighted in wearing rings. Th'ere is no doubt but that our Earth and the other planets and moons in our cluster were all at one time or another as hot as the Sun, but, being smaller than the Sun, they have parted with their heat more rapidly. This heat was of course latent in the original atoms, and was roused into activity during the chemical changes and physical condensation through which the gaseous materials have passed while turning into solid rock, etc., and this heat has been radiating into space all the time or being con verted into other forms of energy, or locked up in latent form, so that now we have very little of our own heat left, and are dependent on the Sun for our supplies.

Minerals are touched on in video games like Minecraft® and Mineral ValleyTM, making them more a part of our daily experience. Salt, one vital mineral, helps maintain the fluid in our blood cells and is used to transmit information in our nerves and muscles. Also, Jesus told his followers that we are the salt of the earth (Matthew 5:13), something thus needed for health and flavor. Here is a God-honoring book that reveals the first mention of minerals in the Bible, symbolic usages, their current values in culture and society, and their mention in heaven.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A chunk of granite rock may look gray and boring, but take a closer look under a microscope and it's possible to see that the rock is made from billions of tiny colorful grains.

And they'll learn that some minerals grow as beautiful shapes called crystals that can be made into precious gemstones such as rubies and sapphires. Filled with information perfectly suited to the abilities and interests of an early elementary audience, this colorful, fact-filled volume gives readers a chance not only to learn, but also to develop their powers of observation and critical thinking. From stunning photographs to high-interest facts, this book makes exploring the topic of rocks and minerals a lively, engaging experience.
