Kula Misra has met that challenge and produced a first-rate book
that reviews the techniques employed in ore deposit research and
summarize the geological and geochemical characteristics and
origins of selected classes of metallic ore deposits. In a field
that generates new data daily, Understanding Mineral Deposits is
up-to-date useful. With this book he has succeeded in high-lighting
the multidimensional nature of economic geology. It is also an
excellent reference for professional geologists and a useful txt
for senior-or graduate level course in metallic mineral
deposits
