This volume deals with sulphates, carbonates, phosphates and halides, incorporating recent advances in investigative techniques. Each mineral chapter has sections on structure, chemistry, optical and physical properties, distinguishing features and paragenesis. Chapters are headed with brief tabulations of mineral data and a sketch of optical orientation. Results are included from ocean floor experimentation and deep sea drilling.

This edition takes account of the advances that have been made in all aspects of earth sciences, particularly mineralogy, over the recent years.
The book should be of interest to lecturers in departments of geology, mineralogy, geochemists, geophysics, geological engineering, mining and mineral resources; and to professionals in the ceramics industry.
Rock-forming Minerals: Framework silicates
This book provides a very basic introduction to electron microscopy and energy dispersive spectrometry (EDS). It has the largest compiled collection of EDS spectra ever published and covers most common rock forming minerals.
These titles will be core stock for years to come.The books are written by experienced HR trainers and will be typeset by PK McBride (an experienced teacher and author of several Learning Made Simples himself).
The text is enhanced with more than 200 figures as well as cartoon characters who offer informative commentary on the different approaches used in XAFS spectroscopy.
