Minerals, Rocks and Maps - Tapa blanda

Sinopsis

Minerals, Rocks and Maps explores the nature of common minerals and rocks. It introduces techniques for describing and identifying them, using specimens in the home kit. It also introduces investigation of their microscopic properties by means of a virtual microscope on DVD-ROM. Other materials on DVD-ROM, including digital mineral and rock specimens, supplement and enhance the teaching of the practical elements introduced in the home kit. This block also introduces the interpretation of geological maps and with the aid of digital mapping techniques and global examples investigates the relationship between the landscape and underlying rocks, showing how the geological history of any area can be interpreted from a geological map. Material on DVD-ROM also helps you to visualise and interpret geological structures in three dimensions. Unfortunately due to copyright restrictions some of the DVD material refered to in this book is not available for sale as a result study of some of the activities may be limited.
