Book Synopsis Glossary of Obsolete Mineral Names by : Peter Bayliss
Download or read book Glossary of Obsolete Mineral Names written by Peter Bayliss and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lists all names used for mineral substances throughout history which are NOT now considered valid or current. Each mineral today can have only a single name and modern mineralogical science does not recognize gemologically important colour variations with independent names. Designed as a companion to: Fleischer's glossary of mineral species.
Download or read book Rubellite written by Ryan Bowling and published by . This book was released on 2019-09-12 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Taking its name from the Latin rubellus, meaning "reddish," rubellite was rare in the ancient world. Its unique properties set it apart from other hard, red gemstones, generically known then as "ruby" or "carbuncle." That distinction was lost during the Dark Ages but revived in the Enlightenment, as science undertook its quest to understand the nature of things. For two and a half centuries, rubellite has had a part of that great unraveling.Today "rubellite" refers to the pink to red variety of tourmaline, a large group of borosilicates. Coveted most for its endless combinations of vivid colors, just a handful of species -elbaite, liddicoatite, rossmanite -form rubellite, which is found as large, gemmy, euhedral crystals in pegmatites across the globe.With articles covering history, culture, science, and localities, our expert authors explore the fascinating world of rubellite and its complicated mineral family. Extraordinary imageryilluminates their stories, enticing readers into the paradox of rubellite and its tourmaline brethren.

Book Synopsis Rock Forming Minerals by : William Alexander Deer
Download or read book Rock Forming Minerals written by William Alexander Deer and published by Geological Society of London. This book was released on 1978 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This extensive revision deals with the minerals talc, pyrophyllite, chlorite, serpentine, stilpnomelane, zussmanite, prehnite and apophyllite. The text has been completely rewritten and very much expanded to take account of the many advances that have been made in all aspects of the Earth sciences, not least mineralogy. Each chapter is headed by a brief tabulation of mineral data and ends with full references. Crystal structures are described and illustrated, followed by discussion of structural information gained from spectroscopic as well as X-ray and electron-optic methods. Chemical sections include many analyses and structural formulae, phase relations, igneous, metamorphic and sedimentary geochemistry, alteration and weathering. Examples are given of a range of mineral parageneses. Correlation between the various aspects of mineralogy are emphasized in order to provide a scientific understanding of minerals as well as their description and identification. So great has been the expansion of research on layered silicates that a separate volume (3A, 2003) was devoted entirely to micas and another (3C), entirely for clay minerals will also be published. Rock-Forming Minerals is an essential reference work for professionals, researchers and postgraduate students in Earth science and related fields in chemistry, physics, engineering, environmental and soil sciences.

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
