In recent years mineralogy has developed even stronger links with
solid-state chemistry and physics and these developments have been
accompanied by a trend towards further quantification in the
theoretical as well as the experimental aspects of the subject. The
importance of solid-state chemistry to mineralogy was reflected in
a symposium held at the 1982 Annual Congress of The Royal Society
of Chemistry at which the original versions of most of the
contributions to this book were presented. The meeting brought
together chemists, geologists and mineralogists all of whom were
interested in the application of modern spectroscopic techniques to
the study of bonding in minerals. The interdisci plinary nature of
the symposium enabled a beneficial exchange of information from the
various fields and it was felt that a book presenting reviews of
the key areas of the subject would be a useful addition to both the
chemical and mineralogical literature. The field of study which is
commonly termed the 'physics and chemistry of minerals' has itself
developed very rapidly over recent years. Such rapid development
has resulted in many chemists, geologists, geochemists and
mineralogists being less familiar than they might wish with the
techniques currently available. Central to this field is an
understanding of chemical bonding or 'electronic structure' in
minerals which has been developed both theoretically and by the use
of spectroscopic techniques."
