This book is an outgrowth of my interest in the chemistry of sedimentary rocks. In teaching geochemistry, I realized that the example for many chemical processes are drawn from the study of ore deposits. Consequently, we initiated a course at The University of Cincinnati entitled "Sedimentary Ore Deposits," which server as the final quarter course f…
Anyone who compares the present throughly revised and enlarged edition of this book with the three previous ones, the first of which was published in 1962, may well ask wheter the principles of applied geophysics have become more numerous during the last 25 years or so. Such is not the case and the much larger size of the present edition is due to t…
this book refresents years of work by the ICA spetial data standards commission during the 1995-2003 ICA cycles during which the main scientific work was conducted. the commission began working to develop an exhaustive set of scientific and technical characteristics by which every spetial metadata standard in the world could be assessed and understo…
This book intended for undergraduate and graduate students taking an introductory course in geochemistry. It also will serve as a reference text for professional scientists. The book covers the entire field of geochemistry. I assume that the reader has been exposed to some geology, mineralogy, chemistry, and calculus. However, very little chemistry …
The geology and geochemistry of petroleum are becoming ever more important as demand for fossil fuels increases worldwide. We must find new hydrocarbon reserves that are hidden in almost inaccessible areas. Our knowledge of petroleum geology and geochemistry is the best intellectual tool that we have for the never ending search for rich new deposits…

Coal is becoming an increasingly important factor in the energy resource projections for the remainder of this century. The major use in the generation of electricity is expected to expand as more power plants are converted from petroleum fuels and natural gas to coal. A smaller volume use, the production of metallurgical coke, is expected to increa…
This text diffes in many respects from the conventional approach to geology, so it may be appropriate to indicate some of the objectives that led to its development. Most important and most difficult to realize was the ideal of a book embodying throughout the scientific method. It was felt that the material should alternate between an investigatory …
This new, undated edition introduction to Mineral Exploration provides a comprehensive overview of all aspects of mineral exploration. successful mineral exploration requires excellence in geology as well as integration with a range of other scientitic, engineering, and financial techniques. This book covers not only the nature of mineral exploratio…
