Beschreibung
Written by a mining engineer specialized in exploration and mining geology both in industry and in academia, and who studied a large number of diverse ore deposits in South, Central and North America, Europe, Asia, Africa and Australia.
In general terms, this book intends to correct general beliefs on
how to explore, find and develop ore in different geological and
geographical settings.
This book summarizes the observations, challenges, successes and failures faced by the author in his 66 years of active exploration and development of ore and corresponding teaching and consulting.

This book summarizes the observations, challenges, successes and failures faced by the author in his 66 years of active exploration and development of ore and corresponding teaching and consulting.
The last comprehensive book devoted to this topic was by H.E. McKinstry (“Mining Geology”, 1948), which is now outdated (and mostly unavailable)
Most other books on economic geology focus on describing ore deposits and/or discussing their genesis, but not on how to find and develop ore
This book was written by a mining engineer and geologist with ample experience in searching for diverse ore deposits around the world, developing and evaluating them, determing potential environmental problems, and teaching others how to carry out these tasks efficiently
This book is written in a manner that is comprehensive and useful to professors, students, geologists, mining engineers, managers and investors in mineral resourses
