Esta es una de las pocas obras que aborda el análisis y la interpretación tridimensional de los modelos geológicos con los que se deben enfrentar diariamente los profesionales de las ciencias de la tierra.
Discover the history of precious, semi-precious, and organic gemstones, their scientific properties, their mythical powers, and their traditional uses.
The first edition of the Handbook of Clay Science published in 2006 assembled the scattered literature on the varied and diverse aspects that make up the discipline of clay science.
La presente obra aborda uno de los procesos más intrigantes de la geología: el metamorfismo; el cual ha sido ampliamente difundido a través de la historia geológica de la Tierra y gran actor en su constitución.
die Weltwirtschaft hungert nach wertvollen Mineralen und Seltenen Erden – sind sie doch Ausgangstoffe für unzählige Produkte, vom Smartphone bis zur Windkraftanlage.
Although numerous volumes have been written upon petroleum, and some very educational works on this important subject are to be found in technological literature, it is strange that prior to the appearance of this little book, it has been impossible to turn to any publication which deals with this Common Commodity of Commerce in a popular manner.
This book is for geoscience students taking introductory or intermediate-level courses in igneous petrology, to help develop key skills (and confidence) in identifying igneous minerals, interpreting and allocating appropriate names to unknown rocks presented to them.
Carbonate rocks (limestones and dolomites) constitute a major part of the geological column and contain not only 60% of the world's known hydrocarbons but also host extensive mineral deposits.
The earlier editions of this book have been used by successive generations of students for more than 20 years, and it is the standard text on the subject in most British universities and many others throughout the world.

Introduction to Ore-Forming Processes is the first senior undergraduate postgraduate textbook to focus specifically on the multiplicity of geological processes that result in the formation of mineral deposits.
The Second Edition of this unique pocket field guide has been thoroughly revised and updated to include advances in physical volcanology, emplacement of magmas and interpreting structures and textures in igneous rocks.
