Globally, mineral exploration has grown significantly in recent
years, driven by the rapid acceleration in prices for gold and
diamonds since 2004 and the emergence of a middle class in both
China and India-aggressively increased demand. Despite this
resurgence, no single book has been published that takes an
interdisciplinary approach in addressing the full scope of mineral
exploration-from mining and extraction to economic evaluation,
policies, sustainability, and environmental impacts. "Mineral
Exploration: Principles and Applications" accomplishes this by
presenting each topic with theoretical approaches first followed by
specific applications that can be immediately implemented in the
field.
Presents16 case studies that allow readers to quickly apply
exploration concepts to real-life scenarios in the fieldIncludes
more than 200 illustrations and full-color photographsthat aid the
reader in retaining key procedures and applicationsEach chapter is
structured so that its topic is discussed theoretically first
followed by specific applicationsCombines both theory and
application in a multidisciplinary reference that thoroughly
addresses the full scope of mineral explorationAuthored by an
instructor with more than 30 years of experience in the field and a
decade as a consultant for commercial mining companies
