The Geology and Origin of Australia's Mineral Deposits (Oxford Monographs on Geology and Geophysics)

This book is the first to integrate the geological evolution of the Australian continent with the numerous episodes of mineralization that have occurred since the Archaean period. With their combined expertise in mineral deposit research, the authors cite geological and geophysical data to present hypotheses regarding the origins of the major types of mineral deposits in Australia, particularly those that have produced significant amounts of iron, nickel, uranium, copper, lead, zinc, tin, tungsten, gold, silver, and diamond. This book will be invaluable to mineral geologists conducting research and mineral resource assessment in industry, government, and academia.Solomon, M. is the author of 'The Geology and Origin of Australia's Mineral Deposits (Oxford Monographs on Geology and Geophysics)', published 1994 under ISBN 9780198544821 and ISBN 0198544820.
