Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is a beginner's guide to using the petrographic microscope in a geological context. The petrographic microscope is an optical microscope used to examine thin sections of geological materials, typically rocks, minerals and fossils. It provides a thorough theoretical and practical description of the petrographic microscope and how to use it, aimed at facilitating the identification of rock-forming minerals. Its techniques and methods are not only useful in petrographic analysis, but also in analytical chemistry, mineralogy, and other fields. The author emphasizes that simply knowing the appearance of certain minerals in some rocks is not sufficient to determine their composition. A more comprehensive analysis involving various chemical and physical methods is often required, and this book describes in detail a range of separation and investigation methods. By combining all these methods, a more complete understanding of rock composition and textures can be achieved, revealing not only their present condition but also their origin and alteration. Thus, the petrographic microscope becomes a valuable tool for geologists in understanding the geological history of the Earth. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781332313266_0
