Softcover/Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. A mineral in thin section can reveal its identity through the smallest optical clues-but only to an observer trained to recognise them. Designed for the instructional laboratory, this scientific textbook turns petrographic microscopy into a disciplined process of examination, showing students how mineral composition and texture become legible under the microscope. Practical observation is grounded in the optical principles and instruments that make reliable identification possible. The step-by-step organisation directs attention to form, colour, refractive index, cleavage, inclusions and related characteristics, connecting each visible property to a systematic method of analysis. Rather than separating theory from laboratory work, the text brings them together: optical mineralogy supplies the framework, while close examination of rock sections develops the skill needed to distinguish minerals as they actually occur. Detailed treatment of microscopic techniques makes the volume both a course text and a working laboratory manual for students in technical and scientific schools. Its emphasis remains firmly on essential facts, careful procedure and evidence-based identification, from preparing and observing thin sections to comparing the properties that separate one mineral from another. The approach encourages precision at every stage, helping students organise observations and interpret the mineral content of rocks through repeatable methods. This book was out of print for decades and is now republished by Alpha Editions. It has been restored for today's and future generations. This edition is not just a reprint - it's a collector's item and a cultural treasure. Sprache: Englisch Gewicht in Gramm: 273.…
