Hydrothermal Alteration in the Mount Hood Area, Oregon
A study of late Tertiary hydrothermal alteration corresponding to zeolite-facies to greenschist-facies metamorphism and Quaternary hydrothermal and fumarolic minerals from outcrops and geothermal drill holes near Mount Hood, Oregon.
Understanding Mineral Deposits
Mineral deposits have supplied useful or valuable material for human consumption long before they became objects of scientific curiosity or commercial exploitation. In fact, the earliest human interest in rocks was probably because of the easily accessible, useful (e. g. , red pigment in the form of earthy hematite) or valuable (e. g. , native gold and gemstones) materials they contained at places. In modem times, the study of mineral deposits has evolved into an applied science employing detailed field observations, sophisticated laboratory techniques for additional information, and computer modeling to build complex hypotheses. Understanding concepts that would someday help geologists to f...
Rock-forming Minerals
Originally published in 1963, this text provides a major revision of the first edition. It is devoted to the feldspar minerals, incorporating the advances in knowledge and understanding arising from the new and improved techniques for the study of minerals that have developed over the decades between editions. The authors have set out to maintain the general approach used in the other volumes, summarizing important research results and presenting them in an organized fashion.
Altered Volcanic Rocks
This book is about the processes and products of alteration in submarine volcanic successions. Its emphasis is on hydrothermal alteration associated with volcanic hosted massive sulfide deposits.
Compositional Changes Induced by Hydrothermal Alteration at the Red Mountain Alunite Deposit, Lake City, Colorado
Sample analysis shows chemical changes in rocks from hydrothermal alteration.
Clay Materials Used in Construction
Concluding the trilogy on geological materials in construction, this authoritative volume reviews many uses of clays, ranging from simple fills to sophisticated products. Comprehensive and international coverage is achieved by an expert team, including geologists, engineers and architects. Packed with information prepared for a wide readership, this unique handbook is also copiously illustrated. The volume is dedicated to the memory of Professor Sir Alec Skempton. Various definitions of 'clay' are explored. Clay mineralogy is described, plus the geological formation of clay deposits and their fundamental materials properties. World and British clay deposits are reviewed and explained. New co...
