About this title

Synopsis

Explore how geology shapes where valuable metals form and how miners locate them.

This book presents the core facts about ore occurrence and the structural geology behind mining camps in the United States. Based on lecture notes from the Michigan College of Mines, it offers clear explanations of crustal structure, ore-forming processes, and practical patterns seen in major districts.

The text walks through how ore bodies develop, from the Earth’s crust to the rocks and fractures that host valuable minerals. It covers chemistry of ore deposition, notable ore districts, and the role of groundwater, fractures, and rock types in shaping where metals occur. Rich in diagrams and field-based insights, it aims to help mining professionals and students understand where to look for minerals and how deposits form.

Clear frameworks for the crust’s fracture and flow zones and how they drive ore growth
Descriptive chapters on iron, copper, lead, zinc, and coal deposits with regional examples
Grounded explanations of ore zoning, enrichment, and the role of groundwater
Illustrations and cross-sections that illuminate real-world mining districts

Ideal for readers of mining geology, ore geology, and field-oriented geoscience texts who want practical, expedition-ready knowledge.
