Sinopsis

The Formation Of Geodes: With Remarks On The Silicification Of Fossils (1908) is a scientific book written by Ray Smith Bassler. The book explores the formation of geodes, which are spherical rock formations that contain hollow cavities lined with crystals. The author provides a detailed analysis of the geological processes that lead to the formation of geodes, including the role of volcanic activity, sedimentation, and mineral precipitation.In addition to discussing the formation of geodes, the book also includes remarks on the silicification of fossils. Silicification is the process by which organic materials are replaced by silica minerals, resulting in the preservation of fossils. Bassler examines the various factors that contribute to the silicification of fossils, such as the chemical composition of the surrounding sediment and the conditions under which the fossil was buried.Overall, The Formation Of Geodes: With Remarks On The Silicification Of Fossils (1908) is an informative and detailed scientific text that provides valuable insights into the geological processes that shape our planet and the preservation of fossils.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
