Mineral exploration: principles and applications (2nd edition.)

Globally, mineral exploration has grown significantly in recent years, driven by the rapid acceleration in prices for gold and diamonds since 2004 and the emergence of a middle class in both China and India.

Despite this resurgence, no single book has been published that takes an interdisciplinary approach in addressing the full scope of mineral exploration - from mining and extraction to economic evaluation, policies, sustainability, and environmental impacts. 'Mineral Exploration' accomplishes this by presenting each topic with theoretical approaches first followed by specific applications that can be immediately implemented in the field.
