Produktbeschreibung

A clear and accessible introduction to the use of thin section in the study of Petrography - the scientific description of rocks. Illustrated with a wealth of full colour thin section photographs, the book explains how to observe mineral and rock samples under the microscope. It covers all rock types - igneous, sedimentary and metamorphic - with equal emphasis and authority, providing the student with an excellent overview of the subject. Each photograph has been chosen to instruct the beginner and offer valuable resource material to the teacher and lecturer of geology. A useful teaching and learning tool and a concise reference and review of rock and mineral identification.
