Elements of Geochemistry, Geochemical Exploration and Medical Geology

 
K. R. Randive (Author)
Synopsis

Geochemistry is a prime branch of geosciences, which relates to variety of sub-disciplines including mineralogy, petrology and petrogenesis, tectonics, exploration and economic geology. Geochemistry is an important tool for exploration of hidden ore deposits and understanding geo-scientific causes for health related hazards.

This book is a welcome addition to the available literature for the students and research scholars of Geology. It is divided into three separate parts, first one is Geochemistry comprising of 11 chapters, second one is Geochemical Exploration comprising of 12 chapters and third one is Medical Geology which is comprised of 4 chapters.

Since this book is intended for the graduate and post graduate students of geology, it is written in simple English that can be easily followed by an average student. It will be a comprehensive collection of principles of Geochemistry, Geochemical Exploration techniques and Fundamental concepts of Medical Geology. It will be first textbook covering medical geology under distinct chapter scheme. The discipline of medical geology is newly emerging and propagated by the Internal Union of Geological Sciences (IUGS). Some of the original concepts of author are being given in this book.

Contents: Basic Principles of Chemistry; Chemistry of Minerals; Geochemistry of Major Elements; Trace Element Geochemistry; Isotope Geochemistry; Geochemistry of the Universe; Geochemistry of the Earth; Geochemistry of Igneous Rocks; Geochemistry of Metamorphic Rocks; Geochemistry of Sedimentary Rocks; Geochemistry of Ore Deposits; What is Geochemical Exploration?; Dispersion Patterns of deep seated origin; Surficial Dispersion Patterns; Methods of Sampling; Sample Preparation; LaboratoryMethods of Analysis; Bedrock Geochemical Surveys; Soil Geochemical Surveys; Stream Sediment Surveys; Biogeochemical and Geobotanical Surveys; Other Geochemical Surving Methods; Design of Geochemical Exploration Programs; Fundamental Principles of Medical Geology; Trace Elements and Human Health; Geological Health Hazards; Mineral Medicines in Ayurveda.
