Produktbeschreibung

This volume presents an exhaustive overview of major orebodies and mineral deposits of North Africa. It is intended both for academic researchers and especially for exploration geologists interested in mineral exploration in the northern part of the African continent. Recent changes in the mining laws of most countries in this region have encouraged international mining companies to invest in local mineral industries. Accordingly, this volume will be very useful for these professionals, as well as for researchers in the field of economic geology.

Rezensionen

"The editors have to be commended for successfully achieving the daunting task of compiling and editing this large volume of mostly modern knowledge regarding the various economic mineral deposits in North Africa. The book is suitable for academic researchers as well as for mineral explorationists interested in exploring the mineral potential of the northern part of the African continent. The book would be an important addition to libraries of institutions catering to economic geology education or practice." (John Carranza, Natural Resources Research, February, 2017)
"This unique book is a compilation of modern scientific articles on a full spectrum of metallic and non-metallic deposits in North Africa. ... The writing is strongly augmented by many geologic maps, cross sections, and field and petrographic photographs. ... Extensivereferences support each chapter. This exemplary volume deserves a place in the libraries of economic geologists the world over. Summing Up: Recommended. Lower-division undergraduates through researchers and faculty; professionals." (T. L. T. Grose, Choice, Vol. 54 (4), December, 2016)
