Sinossi
Master practical rock analysis with reliable, field-tested methods. This handbook translates decades of mineral analysis into clear, approachable steps for chemists, petrologists, and mining engineers alike.
This edition focuses on silicate rocks, especially igneous types, and offers straightforward techniques that emphasize real-world manipulation, safety, and reproducible results. It presents the most practical methods used by leading geoscience laboratories, with attention to the nuances that beginners and seasoned analysts encounter in the lab.
- Hands-on procedures for sample selection, preparation, and weighing to ensure uniform, representative results.
- Step-by-step guidance on fusion with sodium carbonate and subsequent dissolution for key constituents like silica, alumina, iron oxides, titanium dioxide, lime, and magnesia.
- Clear handling of precipitates, filtration, ignition, and titration, including error avoidance and common pitfalls.
- Discussion of how to interpret results, perform corrections, and understand the limits of each method.
Ideal for students and professionals in petrology, mineralogy, and analytical chemistry who want solid, well-documented techniques to analyze rock samples accurately.
