Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Story of the Minerals In the preparation of this little book the writer has striven to answer questions rather than to rehearse facts. It has been made increasingly plain to him, in the course of his experience that the bulk of the Museum public demand not a text book, however simple, but a statement of the principles upon which may be built up an understanding of such an assemblage of natural objects as the one that has been brought together in the Morgan Memorial Hall of the American Museum of Natural History. The present volume is then an attempt to put into a simple and popular form the How? And the Why? Of mineralogy, to the end that the Visitor-may be enabled to interpret what he sees around him in this Hall. To an extent it has been written around the Introductory Series of the Collee tion, but in a larger sense the book and the exhibit have been prepared together, so that they are closely linked in idea and presentation. Much of the text has been suggested by questions put to the writer by those who in times past have sought information regarding the things of which it treats, and it is in the hope that some of these questions may thus be answered that he now presents it to them.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Manual of Mineralogy and Geology A new edition of the following work having been call ed for, the author has been induced to remodel it, by the conviction that a method of teaching and studying the science different from, and superior to, that which had for merly been pursued in this country, ought to be adopted. That method is well known to have possessed too much of a traditionary character, and to have obliged the stu dent to depend more upon the ipse. Diorit of his instructor than his own investigation. In preparing this edition it has been the design of the author, so far as it was in his power, to furnish the student with a guide by means of which he might be satisfactorily conducted through the process of examining minerals, to the attainment of cor rect results. To accomplish this, sufficient information is given in the following pages, to enable him rightly to employ the characters of mineral substances and to trace the relations existing between them.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Mineralogy of Arizona It is well known to students of mineralogy that the greater num ber of interesting minerals are found at some depth below the surface in regions where the destructive effect of erosion and the decomposing action of meteoric water are not active and hence can be reached only by expensive exploitation rarely undertaken ex cept when compensation is hoped for in the possible discovery of the precious or useful metals. Arizona is attracting considerable attention on account of its unusual mineral resources, and its mountains and cafions are filled with excavations which are evi dences of the enthusiasm with which the search is carried on. Thus formations are penetrated and minerals exposed to view which, lacking this incentive, would never have been discovered.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Glossary of Mineralogy Tms little work was undertaken to supply a want which the Author had frequently experienced. In compiling it he has endeavoured to produce a handy book, combining facility of reference with a concise and familiar account of all the known minerals. In carrying this object into execution, the various names used by different authors have been introduced, as well as certain terms, which, though now obsolete, are, nevertheless, of common occurrence in the works of older mineralogists. To assist those persons who may wish to know something more about minerals than can be learned from books, and who may be desirous of studying our national collections by comparing the printed descriptions with the specimens themselves, references have (when practicable) been made to the Cases in which they will be found both in the British Museum and in the Museum of Practical Geology. The copious list of synonyms used by German and French mineralogists, will, it is to be hoped, prove of great assistance to the student in reading the works of foreign authors, as well as in studying mineral collections in continental museums, or in private cabinets at home, according to whatever system they may happen to be arranged. The names of the authors printed in Italics are those of the persons by whom the minerals to which they are appended were originally examined and named, or they are those of the authors in whose works the mineral will be found described under the name which they follow in the Glossary.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mineralogy: An Introduction to the Study of Minerals and Crystals Furthermore, an attempt has been made to vitalize the subject as much as possible, and accordingly there are chapters on the importance of mineralogy in modern civilization, on gems and precious stones, and on the production and uses Of the important economic minerals. Numerous photographs and short Sketches of distinguished mineralogists have also been introduced in the hope that they will add a human touch. The chapters on crystallography are based very largely upon the senior author's Essentials of Crystallography, while much of the material in the descriptions of the 150 minerals given in this text has been taken from. His Descriptive Mineralogy. The determinative tables are an abridgment of the authors' Mineral Tables. We are greatly indebted to Mr. George R. Swain, technical expert in photography in the University of Michigan, whose varied experience and unusual skill made the excellent photographs of models and minerals possible; also to Dr. George F. Kunz for valuable assistance in securing a considerable number of very desirable photographs. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mineralogy: An Introduction to the Scientific Study of Minerals The student Will not find in the following pages any systematic account of the modes of occurrence of minerals, their geological distribution, their origin, their alterations, or their artificial reproduction, although these constitute the most important, and, perhaps, the most interesting section of Mineralogy proper. There are no chapters upon these subjects because, in my Opinion, they deserve to form a separate volume, and cannot be treated adequately in a volume dealing with the characters and properties of minerals. The essential characters of a mineral, moreover, are quite independent of its source or previous history, and may well be made the first and separate object of study. In the description of mineral species the modern text-book often endeavours to give too much information, and ends by becoming a book of reference rather than a treatise which can be read by the student. This should no longer be necessary, now that Dana's System and Hintze's Handbuch are available; in the present volume an attempt is made to select for the student all that he requires for an elementary acquaint ance with the subject. The species described are those which he will find in all museums, and most of them he may collect for himself. The customary lists of localities are replaced by a description of a few typical occurrences for each important species by a careful study of the corresponding specimens the beginner should obtain the information which will enable him to pursue the subjects of geological and chemical mineralogy with some previous knowledge of minerals. The few angles given are generally only such as are sufficient for the calculation of the axial ratios or for simple exercises in the calculation of indices. In the discussion of optical characters, the introduction of two ellipsoids may appear unnecessary and even confusing; the Fresnel Ellipsoid has been introduced in order to avoid incorrect statements about optic axes, but it will be found that the indicatrix is the only ellipsoid subsequently employed.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Summary of Progress in Mineralogy and Petrography in 1891 Water, and above this temperature is decomposed. Just below 260 the hydrate is biaxial, while above this temperature the anhydrous residue is uniaxial. Other zeolites yield similar results. These lead to the conclusion that they all consist of a nepheline, pyroxene, or feldspar-like silicate, combined with meta or orthosilicic acid, and also an amount of water varying with the temperature. The crystal water may be driven off at high temperature, and taken up again at a lower one, and the various hydrates obtained by the successive steps may possess different crystallographic properties. After a certain amount of loss the minerals refuse to part wrth more water, which is regarded as chemically combined with silica in the silicic-acid portion of the combination. The author determines incidentally the solubility of several of the zeolites in different solvents, and concludes his paper with a table giving the supposed composition of the members of the group. Heulandite is represented as natrolite as etc. Messrs. C. And G. Friedel, n by the action of lime on mica in the presence of calcium chloride, obtained small crystals of anorthite, and by the action of soda and sodium sulphate on the same mineral produced little prismatic crystals of a substance differing from nosean in the addition of two molecules.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Text-Book of Mineralogy: With an Extended Treatise on Crystallography and Physical Mineralogy The preparation of a text-book Of Mineralogy was undertaken in 1868, by Prof. J. D. Dana, immediately after the publication of the fifth edition of the System of Mineralogy. The state of his health, however, early compelled him to relinquish the work, and he was not able subsequently to resume it. Finally, after the lapse of seven years, the editorship of the volume was placed in the hands of the writer, who has endeavored to carry out the original plan. The work is intended to meet the requirements of class instruction. With this end in view the Descriptive part has been made subordinate to the more important subjects embraced under Physical Mineralogy.
