Isogeotherm Hypothesis Of Mineral Occurrence And Origin - William Plotts - Bog

The book ""Isogeotherm Hypothesis Of Mineral Occurrence And Origin: Origin Of Petroleum, Coal And Other Carbonaceous Products"" by William Plotts is a comprehensive study of the isogeotherm hypothesis and its application in understanding the origin and occurrence of minerals, particularly petroleum, coal, and other carbonaceous products. The author explores the concept of isogeotherms, which are lines of equal temperature in the Earth's crust, and how they can be used to explain the formation and distribution of minerals. The book delves into the various factors that influence the formation of petroleum and coal, such as the type of organic matter, the temperature and pressure conditions, and the geological setting. The author also provides a historical overview of the development of the isogeotherm hypothesis and its evolution over time. The book includes numerous case studies and examples to illustrate the application of the theory in real-world scenarios. Overall, this book is a valuable resource for geologists, petroleum engineers, and anyone interested in understanding the origin and occurrence of minerals in the Earth's crust. It provides a clear and concise explanation of the isogeotherm hypothesis and its relevance in the field of mineralogy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
