Livre Edition originale
1st ed. Hardback quarto, no jacket as issued, pictorial cover, very good condition, figures, tables, top edge little foxed (minimal front free flyleaf), minor edgewear, owner's written name. 187 pp. J. B. Wright and three colleagues provide the first comprehensive report on the geology and mineral resources of West Africa. This includes the Precambrian metamorphic basement, the stratigraphic complexities of the sedimentary basins, and the widespread Cenozoic magmatic rocks. The considerable mineral wealth of the region is related to the specific geological setting. This book should have wider than just local interest: the large-scale features of the region are common to the whole African continent. The lead author has long worked in Kenya (Geological Survey) and at a university in Nigeria. (Written name of Eric Middlemost, former academic geologist, University of Sydney.).
