Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Rocks, Minerals and Stocks Owing to differences in speed between the inner and outer portions of the great spheroid of whirling gas, the outer portion separated into rings, which broke into pieces and the pieces wound themselves up into smaller spheroids. Other rings separated from these and also from the central mass and broke up into other pieces, and so on, until we find our Solar System is a system of moons circulating around planets which in turn circulate around a great central mass or Sun. Old Saturn still has a couple of rings and a lot of moons racing around him, showing that at one time the Old fellow was a young fellow and delighted in wearing rings. Th'ere is no doubt but that our Earth and the other planets and moons in our cluster were all at one time or another as hot as the Sun, but, being smaller than the Sun, they have parted with their heat more rapidly. This heat was of course latent in the original atoms, and was roused into activity during the chemical changes and physical condensation through which the gaseous materials have passed while turning into solid rock, etc., and this heat has been radiating into space all the time or being con verted into other forms of energy, or locked up in latent form, so that now we have very little of our own heat left, and are dependent on the Sun for our supplies.

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
