Written by H. Ries, a noted authority in the field, this work offers a clear and systematic introduction to the occurrence, distribution, and classification of both metallic and non-metallic minerals.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe text delves into the formation of ore deposits, examining the physical and chemical processes that concentrate valuable minerals within the Earth's crust. Readers will find detailed discussions on a wide range of materials, including \u003cb\u003eprecious metals\u003c\/b\u003e, \u003cb\u003eindustrial minerals\u003c\/b\u003e, \u003cb\u003ecoal\u003c\/b\u003e, \u003cb\u003epetroleum\u003c\/b\u003e, and \u003cb\u003enatural gas\u003c\/b\u003e. Beyond fuel and ores, Ries also covers the geological properties of structural materials such as building stone, clay, and cement, emphasizing their economic significance and utility.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for students and those entering the mining and geological professions, \"Elementary Economic Geology\" serves as a vital bridge between theoretical earth science and the industrial world. Its structured approach to the study of the planet's natural wealth makes it a significant historical resource for understanding the scientific methods used to identify and evaluate the materials that fuel global industry and infrastructure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
