This open access book documents the use of radiogenic and stable
isotopes to study mineral deposits from a global to the deposit
scale. It includes data-sets that have been directly used in
mineral exploration. Isotopic data have been key to developing
models for the origin of many mineral deposit types. The book has
four sections: (1) the use of radiogenic isotopes to date mineral
deposits, (2) the use of radiogenic isotope mapping to understand
metal sources and regional- to district-scale controls on
metallogenesis, (3) the use of light stable isotopes to determine
fluid and sulfur sources, and (4) the use of metallic stable
isotopes to understand the sources of ore metals. Each section
includes chapters on specific isotopic systems and/or mineral
systems that provide information on theory, analytical methods,
uses in deposit and metallogenic studies, examples, and traps for
young players.

This is the first book that analyses the future raw materials
supply from the demand side of a society that chiefly relies on
renewable energies, which is of great significance for us all. It
addresses primary and secondary resources and substitution, not
only from technical but also socioeconomic and ethical points of
view. The "Energiewende" (Energy Transition) will change our
consumption of natural resources significantly. When in future our
energy requirements will be covered mostly by wind, solar power and
biomass, we will need less coal, oil and natural gas. However, the
consumption of minerals, especially metallic resources, will
increase to build wind generators, solar panels or energy storage
facilities. Besides e.g. copper, nickel or cobalt, rare earth
elements and other high-tech elements will be increasingly used.
With regard to primary metals, Germany is 100 % import dependent;
only secondary material is produced within Germany. Though
sufficient geological primary resources exist worldwide, their
availability on the market is crucial. The future supply of the
market is dependent on the development of prices, the transparency
of the market and the question of social and ethical standards in
the raw materials industry, as well as the social license to
operate, which especially applies to mining. The book offers a
valuable resource for everyone interested in the future raw
material supply of our way of life, which will involve more and
more renewable energies.

Dieses Buch behandelt wichtige Aspekte von (mineralischen)
Ressourcen. Die Herausgeber des Buches versuchen seit vielen
Jahren, den Sachstand zu analysieren und daraus Anregungen und
einen Ausblick auf zukĂĽnftige Potenziale abzuleiten. Dieser Band
gliedert sich in vier Teile: IÂ Â Â
Rohstoffwirtschaft II  Primäre Rohstoffe IIIÂ
Sekundäre Rohstoffe und Recycling IV Verarbeitung und Produkte.
Herausragende Autoren diskutieren praxisnah das Thema aus
unterschiedlichen Blickwinkeln. Dabei sprechen sie sowohl
politische Aspekte an, wie die VerfĂĽgbarkeit von Rohstoffen und
Risikomanagement, als auch das Potenzial alternativer Rohstoffe und
vor allem von Recycling. Der Fokus liegt auf den strategischen
Elementen, die eine Grundvoraussetzung für „Grüne
Technologie“ und die „Energiewende“ bieten. Interessant ist
hierbei die europäische Vorsorge, die Nachfrage nach diesen
Metallen zu decken. Wesentliche Fragestellungen, die in diesem Buch
Beachtung finden, erstrecken sich von innovativen Methoden ĂĽber
das Auffinden neuer Lagerstätten, Aufbereitung und Verhüttung von
Rohstoffen bis zu den Märkten und dem industriellen Einsatz von
Hochtechnologiemetallen sowie einem Ausblick in die Zukunft des
Bergbaus, Urban Mining und „nachhaltiger Bergbau“.
