Titre : Biogeochemistry in mineral exploration Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Colin E. Dunn, Auteur Editeur : Amsterdam [Pays-Bas] : Elsevier Année de publication : 2007 Collection : Handbook of exploration and environmental geochemistry num. 9 Importance : 1 vol. (VI-462 p.) Présentation : ill. Format : 24 cm Accompagnement : 1 cédérom ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-0-444-53074-5 Note générale : Bibliogr. p. [421]-449 Langues : Anglais (eng) Catégories : Biogéochimie ; Géochimie de l'environnement ; Minéralogie déterminative ; Minéraux -- Prospection biogéochimique ; Prospection biogéochimique Index. décimale : 551.9 Résumé : Significant refinements of biogeochemical methods applied to mineral exploration have been made during more than twenty years since the last major publication on this technique. This innovative, practical and comprehensive text is designed as a field handbook and an office reference volume. It outlines the historical development of biogeochemical methods applied to mineral exploration, and provides details of what, how, why and when to collect samples from all major climatic environments with examples from around the world. Recent commercialization of sophisticated analytical technology permits immensely more insight into the multi-element composition of plants. In particular, precise determination of ultra-trace levels of pathfinder elements in dry tissues and recognition of element distribution patterns with respect to concealed mineralization. Data handling and interpretation are discussed in context of a wealth of previously unpublished information, including a section on plant mineralogy, much of which has been classified as confidential until recently. Data are provided on the biogeochemistry of more than 60 elements and, by case history examples, their roles discussed in assisting in the discovery of concealed mineral deposits. A look to the future includes the potential role of bacteria to provide new focus for mineral exploration. Analyses of samples from the controlled environment of Britains Eden Project are presented on an accompanying CD as part of a database that includes, also, the potential role of the halogens to assist in mineral exploration. Data on this CD provide a hands-on approach for the reader to interrogate and personally assess real datasets from the burgeoning discipline of biogeochemical exploration. * Describes the practical aspects of plant selection and collection in different environments around the world, and how to process and analyze them *Discusses more than 60 elements in plants, with data interpretation and case history results that include exploration for Au, PGEs, U, base metals and kimberlites * Contains databases as digital files on an accompanying CD for "hands-on" experimentation with real biogeochemical data Note de contenu : Introduction -- Plant function, chemistry and mineralogy -- Field guide 1: climatic and geographic zones -- Field guide 2: sample selection and collection -- Survey design and comparisons with other sample media -- Sample preparation and decomposition -- Plant analysis -- The eden project -- source of a biogeochemical database -- Biogeochemical behaviour of the elments -- Data handling and analysis -- Case histories -- Exploration geomicrobiology -- the new frontier -- A look to the future Biogeochemistry in mineral exploration [texte imprimé] / Colin E.

Index Langues : Anglais (eng) Langues originales : Allemand (ger) Catégories : Biotechnologie Index. décimale : 660.6 Résumé : "Biotechnology for Beginners, Second Edition, presents the latest information and developments from the field of biotechnology-the applied science of using living organisms and their by-products for commercial development-which has grown and evolved to such an extent over the past few years that increasing numbers of professionals work in areas that are directly impacted by the science. For the first time, this book offers an exciting and colorful overview of biotechnology for professionals and students in a wide array of the life sciences, including genetics, immunology, biochemistry, agronomy, and animal science. This book also appeals to the lay reader without a scientific background who is interested in an entertaining and informative introduction to the key aspects of biotechnology. Authors Renneberg and Demain discuss the opportunities and risks of individual technologies and provide historical data in easy-to-reference boxes, highlighting key topics. The book covers all major aspects of the field, from food biotechnology to enzymes, genetic engineering, viruses, antibodies, and vaccines, to environmental biotechnology, transgenic animals, analytical biotechnology, and the human genome. This stimulating book is the most user-friendly source for a comprehensive overview of this complex field." -- [Source inconnue] Note de contenu : Beer, bread, and cheese : the tasty side of biotechnology -- Enzymes : molecular supercatalysts for use at home and in industry -- The wonders of gene technology -- White biotechnology: cells as synthetic factories -- Viruses, antibodies, and vaccines -- Environmental biotechnology : from one-way streets to traffic circles -- Green biotechnology -- Embryos, clones, and transgenic animals -- Myocardial infraction, cancer, and stem cells: biotechnology as a life saver -- Analytic biotechnology and the human genome Biotechnology for beginners = Biotechnologie für Anfänger, 2e éd.
