Borates : Handbook of Deposits, Processing, Properties, and Use Hardback

Hardback

Description

This comprehensive reference is the first to cover industrially important borates, from deposits, through chemistry, mining, processing, and applications.

The reference work begins with a listing of the 238 currently known borate minerals, their formulas, and properties.

It features modern theories on the origin of borate deposits, their molecular structure and detailed descriptions of the world's borate deposits.

Garrett describes the fascinating history of the discovery and development of borate deposits with anecdotes of how resourceful operators overcame obstacles in obtaining their minerals.

Chapters on mining technology and processing detail the mineral's development from the earliest recorded times up to the sophisticated operations of the present day.

The book also contains a comprehensive literature on boron isotope chemistry, their diverse applications, and productions and resource statistics for the world's largest industrial producers.
