Tables for the Determination of Minerals
Author: Edward Henry Kraus
Publisher: Forgotten Books
ISBN: 9780266255994
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 266
Book Description
Excerpt from Tables for the Determination of Minerals: By Means of Their Physical Properties, Occurrences, and Associates The successful determination of minerals at sight depends upon the ability to make quick and accurate distinctions between the physical properties, occurrences, and associates of the several minerals which may be suggested by the luster, color, form, streak, and hardness, especially, of a given specimen. As a result Of extensive experience in the laboratory and field, luster and color have been made the fundamental basis of these tables, further subdivisions being introduced by the streak and hardness. Minerals with similar physical properties are thus grouped together, aiding the student materially to acquire the necessary facility to make rapid distinctions. The tables include 250 of the most common minerals, classified into three groups, which may be designated as (1) very common, (2) common, and (3) not common, but important. The display given to the name of a mineral indicates at a glance in which of the above groups it has been placed. Page references to several textbooks on mineralogy will be found of great convenience when more detailed descriptions are desired than obviously can be given in determinative tables.

Petrogenesis of Metamorphic Rocks
Author: Kurt Bucher
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 3662030004
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 298
Book Description
Metamorphic rocks are one of the three classes of rocks. Seen on a global scale they constitute the dominant material of the Earth. The understanding of the petrogenesis and significance of metamorphic of geological education. rocks is, therefore, a fundamental topic There are, of course, many different possible ways to lecture on this theme. This book addresses rock metamorphism from a relatively pragmatic view point. It has been written for the senior undergrad uate or graduate student who needs practical knowledge of how to interpret various groups of minerals found in metamorphic rocks. The book is also of interest for the non-specialist and non-petrolo gist professional who is interested in learning more about the geolo gical messages that metamorphic mineral assemblages are sending, as well as pressure and temperature conditions of formation. The book is organized into two parts. The first part introduces the different types of metamorphism, defines some names, terms and graphs used to describe metamorphic rocks, and discusses principal aspects of metamorphic processes. Part I introduces the causes of metamorphism on various scales in time and space, and some principles of chemical reactions in rocks that accompany metamorphism, but without treating these principles in detail, and presenting the thermodynamic basis for quantitative analysis of reactions and their equilibria in metamorphism. Part I also presents concepts of metamorphic grade or intensity of metamorphism, such as the metamorphic-facies concept.
