Description
John Wiley Manual Of Mineral Science With Cd-Rom 23Rd Edition by Klein C
The classic in the field since 1848, this extraordinary reference offers readers unsurpassed coverage of mineralogy and crystallography. The book is known for its complete coverage of concepts and principles with along a more systematic and descriptive treatment of mineralogy. The revised edition now includes a CD-ROM to let readers see the minerals and crystals, while also viewing chemical composition, symmetry, and morphological crystallography. · Introduction · Physical Properties of Minerals · Elements of Crystal Chemistry · Aspects of Crystal Structures · Chemical Composition of Minerals · Crystallography: External Symmetry of Minerals · Internal Order and Symmetry in Minerals · Crystal Projections · Selected Point Groups and Further Aspects of Space Groups · Crystal Growth and Defects; · Twinning, Color, and Magnetism · Mineral Stability and Phase Diagrams · Post-Crystallization Processes in Minerals · Optical Microscopy · Analytical and Imaging Methods in Mineral Science · Crystal Chemistry and Systematic Descriptions of Native Elements, Sulfides, And Sulfosalts · Crystal Chemistry and Systematic Descriptions of Oxides, Hydroxides, And Halides · Crystal Chemistry and Systematic Descriptions of Carbonates, Nitrates, Borates, Sulfates, Chromates, Tungstates, Molybdates, Phosphates, Arsenates and Vanadates · Crystal Chemistry of Rock-Forming Silicates · Systematic Descriptions of Rock-Forming Silicates · Gem Minerals · Mineral Assemblages: Introduction to Rock Types · Determinative Tables
