Фундаментальные основы геохимии изложены в рамках классической триединой концепции: геохимия элементов, геохимия процессов, геохимия систем, с привлечением термодинамики, теории систем и методов математического моделирования. Отдельная глава посвящена основам физико-химического анализа (геометрической термодинамики) и его применению в геохимии. Особое внимание уделено таким вопросам, как геохимия изотопов, экологическая геохимия элементов, геохимия криогенных процессов и систем, геохимия дисперсных экзогенных систем. Завершающая глава посвящена геохимическим проблемам техногенеза.
Для специалистов геолого-геохимического профиля, а также химиков, занимающихся проблемами окружающей среды. Кроме того, книга может быть использована в качестве учебного пособия для преподавателей и студентов вузов геологических специальностей.

 Iran is positioned on the southwest of Asia forming a bridge connecting three continents of Asia, Europe, and Africa. It is bordered by Azerbaijan, Armenia, Turkmenistan, and the Caspian Sea on the north, Afghanistan and Pakistan on the east, Oman Sea and Persian Gulf on the south, and Turkey and Iraq on the west (Road Atlas of Iran 2004 ) . The country is part of the Iranian Plateau that constitutes a vast and high terrane, which is bordered by the Caspian Sea on the north, Amu Darya, Syr Darya, and Kora River plains on the northeast, Sindh and Punjab Rivers plain on the southeast, the Oman Sea and the Persian Gulf on the south, and the Tigris river plain on the southwest (Comprehensive Geography of Iran 1987 ) <...>

Structural geology deals with ways in which rocks respond to the application of deforming forces and with the structures that result from deformation. The subject is complicated by the enormous range of chemical and mineralog-ical compositions that rocks may have and the large range in physical and chemical environments in which deformation occurs.

As intimated by the book’s title, the purpose of the book is to
(a) Outline the principles of both structural geology and rock engineering (the latter via engineering rock mechanics) and (b) to explain with illustrative examples why the synthesis of the two  subjects is mutually beneficial.
2 Structural Geology and Rock Engineering The McGraw-Hill Dictionary of Scientific and Technical Terms defines structural geology as, “The branch of geology concerned with the form, arrangement and internal structure of the rocks” and rock mechanics as, “Application of the principles of mechanics and geology to quantify the response of rock when it is acted upon by environmental forces, particularly when human-induced factors alter the original ambient forces” <...>

Whether they’re stories about kings and queens, adventurers, wars, empires, or curses, the best stories are always about treasure. From sunken pirate ships to wicked diamonds to cities of gold, its sinister sparkle has a singular ability to bring out the very best and the very worst in each of us. History, mythology, or pure fantasy, the best stories all have that one thing in common: they all have something glittering at their heart. <...>

ROCKS AND MINERALS are a fundamental part of the Earth’s crust. Collecting and studying them can be both a rewarding and an absorbing hobby. This can involve traveling to exciting places, a lot of research, and some time spent cataloging and displaying finds. As your collection grows, you can exchange material with other collectors and purchase rare or exceptional specimens from mineral dealers <...>

This book is a successor to Highway Research Board Special Report 29, Landslides and Engineering Practice (1.8). Special Report 29, which was written by the Highway Research Board Committee on Landslide Investigations and published in 1958, achieved an excellent reputation, both in North America and abroad, as a text on landslides. Because of its popularity, the original printing was sold out within a few years after publication. Since then, there has been a continuing interest in reissuing the original text or publishing a worthwhile successor.
In 1972 the Highway Research Board organized the Task Force for Review of Special Report 29—Landslides. The membership of this task force was selected from several committees within the HRB Soils and Geology Group: its charge was

Many of you will be familiar with the term geothermal energy. It probably conjures mental images of volcanoes or of power stations replete with clouds of steam, deep boreholes, whistling turbines and hot saline water. This book is not primarily about such geothermal energy, which is typically high-temperature (or high enthalpy, in technospeak) energy and which is accessible only in specific geological locations. This book concerns the relatively new science of thermogeology. Thermogeology is the study of so-called ground source heat: the mundane form of heat that is stored in the ground at normal temperatures. Ground source heat is a much less glamorous topic than hightemperature geothermalenergy and its use in space heating is often invisible to those who are not ‘in the know’. It is hugely important, however, as it exists and is accessible everywhere. It genuinely offers an attractive and powerful means of delivering CO2-efficient space heating and cooling. Let me offer the following definition of thermogeology: the study of the occurrence, movement and exploitation of low-enthalpy heat in the relatively shallow geosphere. By ‘relatively shallow’, we are typically talking of depths of down to 200 m or so. By ‘low enthalpy’, we are usually considering temperatures of less than 30◦C.1 <...>

Principles Of Engineering Geology by K.M. Bangar is a book that is designed as a basic text for the students of B.Sc in Geology, B.E. in Civil Engineering and Mining Engineering, A.M.I.E. Section B, and also Diploma In Mining Engineering. This book can also be referred to by those who are appearing for the different competitive examinations conducted by the U.P.S.C. and other State PSCs. The book also provides the required information for the keen readers of Geology. Principles Of Engineering Geology covers topics such as physical geology, minerals, study of various crystals, and also the different types of rocks, such as igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic rocks. The book also covers different geological structures and the Indian geology. Some of the other topics that are covered in the book are different deposits of ore and the role of engineering in geology. Various methods of exploration and surveying techniques are also covered in the book.K.M. Bangar is also the author of Engineering and General Geology.
