Reseña del libro "Introduction to Mineralogy (en Inglés)"
Minerals are formed through various processes such as sublimation from volcanic gases, crystallization from an igneous magma or lava, recrystallization due to metasomatism and metamorphic processes, besides many others. Minerals can be classified into different groups such as carbonates, sulfides, phosphates, silicates, halides, chromates, etc. Mineralogy is a field of geology. It is concerned with the scientific study of the crystal structure, chemistry and physical properties of minerals. The classification of minerals, processes of origin, formation, geographical distribution and utilization are also within the scope of this field. The properties of minerals such as density, solubility, radioactivity, mechanical cohesion, etc. are studied in detail. This book unfolds the innovative aspects of mineralogy, which will be crucial for the holistic understanding of the subject matter. The topics included in this book are of the utmost significance and bound to provide incredible insights to the readers. It will serve as a reference to professionals and students engaged in this field.
