Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the geological history of southeastern New York, a region whose crystalline rocks hold a wealth of stories about the Earth's past. The author, a pioneer in the field of geology, meticulously documents his years of research, tracing the formation of these rocks through the Precambrian and Palaeozoic eras. He analyzes the various rock formations, from the Fordham gneiss to the Inwood limestone, revealing how these once-horizontal strata were subjected to intense pressure and folding, creating the intricate landscape we see today. A key focus of the book is the origin of serpentine, a rock that intrigued geologists for centuries due to its unusual properties and formation. The author examines different theories about its genesis, meticulously analyzing evidence from various serpentine localities in the region, including the renowned deposits of Staten Island and New Rochelle. He ultimately concludes that most serpentines in the area were formed through the alteration of previously intruded magnesian silicate rocks, shedding light on the complex geological processes that shaped this unique landscape. The book's detailed analysis of the crystalline rocks of southeastern New York offers a fascinating glimpse into the geological processes that shaped our planet, while also providing valuable insights into the history of this specific region.
