Presenting the important traditional content of mineralogy--including crystallography, chemical bonding, controls on mineral structure, mineral stability, and crystal growth--it provides students with a foundation for understanding the nature and occurrence of minerals.FEATURESDescribes in detail physical, optical, and X-ray powder diffraction techniques of mineral studyOutlines common chemical analytical methodsProvides thorough descriptions of more than 100 common minerals, emphasizing the geologic contexts within which they occurIncludes tables and diagrams that help students identify minerals using both physical and optical propertiesIncorporates numerous line drawings, photographs, and photomicrographs that elucidate complex conceptsIntroduction to Mineralogy can be packaged with Daniel Schulze's An Atlas of Minerals in Thin Section for use in your course for a nominal additional fee.
