This book was released on 2017-11-28 with total page 562 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Key for the Determination of Rock-Forming Minerals in Thin Sections Tables for the determination of minerals have heretofore been made of secondary importance in text books. In this volume the reverse method has been adopted and the de scriptive tables make up the greater portion of the book. Theoretical discussions in optics have been avoided so far as possible, and only enough has been given to make clear that which is necessary for the practical determination of the minerals. The material has been condensed as much as is consistent with clearness, and all of the descriptions are given in as concise a form as possible. Owing to the difficulty of having the pages of the index indented by machinery, it was found necessary to extend the leaves to the full width of the book, and to indicate the lines along which the student should cut the pages. After trim ming along the lines shown, it will be found convenient to form another index guide by cutting off about one-half inch from the upper right hand corners of the pages descriptive of negative minerals.

Book Rock forming Minerals in Thin Section

Download or read book Rock forming Minerals in Thin Section written by Hans Pichler and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Identificationof rock-forming minerals in thin section is a key skill needed by all earth science students and practising geologists. This translation of the completely revised and updated German second edition (by Leonore Hoke, Institute of Geological and Nuclear Sciences, New Zealand) provides a comprehensive guide to identifying 140 of the most important rock-forming mineral species. The book is divided into three main parts. Part A is a practical guide to the fundamentals of crystal optics, polarization microscopy and the practical use of microscopes. Part B gives a detailed description of the characteristic optical features, special features, and the paragenesis of the most common rock-forming minerals. This well-illustrated part is divided into opaque minerals, isotropic, uniaxial and optical biaxial mineral groups. Part C contains identification tables for the minerals and diagrams showing the international classification of magmatic rocks, as well as a colour plate section showing crystal forms of minerals. The book will provide an invaluable guide to all undergraduate earth scientists, as well as to professional geologists requiring an overview of mineral identification in thin section.

Book Tables for the Determination of the Rock Forming Minerals

Download or read book Tables for the Determination of the Rock Forming Minerals written by F. Lewinson-Lessing and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-22 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Tables for the Determination of the Rock-Forming Minerals: With a Chapter on the Petrological Microscope There is probably no branch of geology in which an unaided student has more difficulty in making a start than in the microscopic study of rocks. This is especially to be regretted, as it is now recognised that this method of research is indispensable for any accurate work on the igneous rocks. Many a resident on the great volcanic plateaux of India, Africa, or America, or on the vast tracts of gneiss and schists which form such a large proportion of the earth's crust, is debarred from geological work by the difficulty of identifying minerals under the microscope. Thus our knowledge of many of these areas is very deficient, for they are only known by occasional rapid traverses; and the problems they present are so complex that they can only be fully worked out by a resident or by a thorough survey. Elementary students feel the difficulty, though they have the advantage of personal instruction. Probably every one who has tried elementary teaching in geology has felt the need of some simple book of reference. The elaborate tables of Rosenbusch and Michel Levy and Lacroix are, of course, perfect in their way, but they are really summaries of the characters of the minerals rather than guides to their rapid determination. With these, if one knows the name of a mineral, its characters can be at once ascertained; but what the student usually requires is the reverse process. He can recognise the characters of a mineral by the microscope, and from these he wants to know its name. The previous tables afford little assistance in doing this. Professor L winson-Lessing has now supplied this want by a set of tables arranged on what may be called the "dichotomous method."
