Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Igneous Rocks, Vol. 1 of 2: Composition, d104ure and Classification, Description and Occurrence In the construction of Volume I, liberal use has been made of many sources of information, to which references are given in most cases. But the subject is so complex that the present treat ment of it must be necessarily incomplete. However, it is hoped that the essential features of the petrology of igneous rocks have been presented in such a manner as to inform the student of the fundamental facts of the subject, and to call his attention to the lines along which further advancement of the science may be made.

Download or read book Igneous Rocks and Processes written by Robin Gill and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2010-02-15 with total page 471 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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. The book thus serves, uniquely, both as a conventional course text and as a practical laboratory manual. Following an introduction reviewing igneous nomenclature, each chapter addresses a specific compositional category of magmatic rocks, covering definition, mineralogy, eruption/ emplacement processes, textures and crystallization processes, geotectonic distribution, geochemistry, and aspects of magma genesis. One chapter is devoted to phase equilibrium experiments and magma evolution; another introduces pyroclastic volcanology. Each chapter concludes with exercises, with the answers being provided at the end of the book. Appendices provide a summary of techniques and optical data for microscope mineral identification, an introduction to petrographic calculations, a glossary of petrological terms, and a list of symbols and units. The book is richly illustrated with line drawings, monochrome pictures and colour plates. Additional resources for this book can be found at: http://www.wiley.com/go/gill/igneous.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Igneous Rocks, Vol. 2 of 2: Composition, d104ure and Classification, Description and Occurrence A systematic description of igneous rocks involves so many features which are so intricately blended that it is not possible to deal with the whole subject thoroughly in a single treatise, and while it may be desirable eventually to devote separate treatises to particular phases of the subject, petrology has not yet reached a stage of development where such a method of procedure seems advisable. Any attempt to describe igneous rocks in a single volume is likely to emphasize some features more than others, and to present certain groups of characteristics in greater detail than others of equal importance for a complete knowledge of igneous rocks. The purpose of a book should determine which features are to be emphasized if it is to be more than an encyclo pedia of petrographical data.

Download or read book Igneous Rocks A Classification and Glossary of Terms written by R. W. Le Maitre and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2005-01-13 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Decades of field and microscope studies, and more recent quantitative geochemical analyses have resulted in a vast, and sometimes overwhelming, array of nomenclature and terminology associated with igneous rocks. This book presents a complete classification of igneous rocks based on all the recommendations of the International Union of Geological Sciences (IUGS) Subcommission on the Systematics of Igneous Rocks. The glossary of igneous terms has been fully updated since the first edition and now includes 1637 entries, of which 316 are recommended by the Subcommission. Incorporating a comprehensive bibliography of source references for all the terms included in the glossary, this book is an indispensable reference guide for all geologists studying igneous rocks, either in the field or the laboratory. It presents a standardised and widely accepted naming scheme that will allow geologists to interpret terminology in the primary literature and provide formal names for rock samples based on petrographic analyses. It is also supported by a website with downloadable code for chemical classifications.
