Practical Field Geology (Classic Reprint) by J. H. Farrell Pdf
Excerpt from Practical Field Geology Geological maps are just as necessary as ordinary maps of mine Workings, and are not much harder to make when one knows how to go about it. It is the lack of this knowledge which is a serious handicap to many mining men who are naturally keen and intelligent Observers, but who fail to record and corre late their Observations. They Often carry an immense amount of geological data in their minds and make use Of it when looking over their mine maps; but such mental pictures lack the graphic quality found only in good geologic maps and sections, which usually meet with instant approval on the part Of practical men. Geological literature usually deals with results rather than with the methods of Obtaining them, and the terms employed are Often of a highly technical nature, so that the text is more or less unintelligible to one who has not had training in the subject.

Outlines of Field-Geology (Classic Reprint) by Archibald Geikie Pdf
Excerpt from Outlines of Field-Geology AT the request of the Lords of the Committee of Privy Council on Education I gave, in the month of August, 1876, at South Kensington, two lectures upon geological maps and instruments of surveying. These lectures formed part of a series designed for teachers, and in illustration of the Loan Collection of Scientific Instru ments at that time exhibited. Treating the subject allotted to me in what seemed likely to prove the most useful manner, I dwelt more specially upon the methods of Observation requisite in ordinary field-geology and endeavoured to show how, by the practice of these methods, geological maps and sections, representing in condensed form the facts established by field-work, could be constructed. The lectures were published in pamphlet form later in the autumn of the same year. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Practical Geology and Mineralogy, a Short Course in Mining Science, Designed for the Student, Miner, Prospector and General Mining Man by William David Hamman B. Sc Pdf
Excerpt from Practical Geology and Mineralogy, a Short Course in Mining Science, Designed for the Student, Miner, Prospector and General Mining Man: Written, From the Standpoint of a Practical Field Man, Revised Edition With the prospector's instinct for new fields and with a firm belief that a common school educa tion qualifies any one to understand basic principles of any science, when presented in common every day language, the well meant friendly advice had to go into the discard. The occasion for a second edition should be conclusive evidence that the author's estimate of the ability of the average person was not wholly incorrect, as no work lacking in substantial merit can well have a renewed lease of life.

Geology for Engineers (Classic Reprint) by Robert Fox Sorsbie Pdf
Excerpt from Geology for Engineers IN these days of specialising in watertight compartments, the bearing of geology in relation to almost every branch Of engineer ing is very frequently neglected or ignored. A knowledge of geology is, however, Of the first importance to the practical engineer, but it is difficult for him to study the application of this science to his requirements Without having recourse to a large number of different textbooks and other works. References to geology which are Often of the greatest practical importance are often almost hidden away or treated in an obscure fashion, where as the engineer requires the needful information to be put before him in a clear and concise manner. To meet this want I have endeavoured to compile the requisite information in one volume, in the hope that it may serve as a handy book of reference.

Popular Oil Geology (Classic Reprint) by Victor Ziegler Pdf
Excerpt from Popular Oil Geology The following pages represent an elaboration of a number of popular lectures in the geology of oil and gas. These were delivered during the past winter, in part at the Colorado School of Mines and in part in the City of Denver, under the auspices Of the Colorado State Oil Com mission. This little book is not intended to be a general treatise on the subject of oil and gas geology. It is not intended for the experienced oil geologist. It is written for the man without technical or scientific training in this branch of geology. Every attempt has been made to pre sent in as simple language as possible the fundamental principles of oil geology, and to render these intelligible to the layman who may be interested in this subject from the practical standpoint, or for the sake of making invest ments, or perhaps only because of a desire to add to his general knowledge. Anyone who wishes to continue his studies in this subject is referred to the treatises mentioned below, or to the author's Principles of Oil Geology, which is now in preparation, and to which this little book is really an introduction. I have not hesitated to draw liberally on the literature of petroleum. Because of the nature of the book, and in the desire to keep it as free as possible from unnecessary material, I have purposely refrained from citations and acknowledgments in the text. I have used most freely the following works: Bacon and Hamor, The American Petroleum Industry Johnson and Huntley, Oil and Gas Production; A. Beeby Thompson, Oil Field Develop ment Hager, Practical Oil Geology and Cunningham Craig, Oil Finding. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Advanced Text-Book of Geology: Descriptive and Industrial Yet another word: The Author requests his brother geo legists who may glance over these pages to remember that they are not intended to contain an exposition of his own peculiar views, but rather to exhibit an elementary outline of the science as now established by the leading workers in Britain, France, Germany, and America. The main object has been to render the student such assistance as will enable him to proceed in the field as a practical observer, and to read with appreciation the higher treatises, special mono graphs, papers, and new discoveries of others. To further this object mention is made, at the end of each section, of the principal works devoted to the department in question to have done more would have been to enter on the field of speculative geology - a subject that lies beyond the scope of an Educational Text-book.

Excerpt from Structural and Field Geology: For Students of Pure and Applied Science This Handbook addresses itself, in the first place, to beginners in Field Geology, but I hope it may be found useful also to students who are preparing for professions in which some knowledge of Structural Geology is of practical importance. The amount of geological training demanded varies, doubtless, with the nature of the profession. Mining engineers, for example, must acquire a knowledge of many details which civil engineers, architects, agriculturists, and public health officers can afford to neglect. Nevertheless, if Structural Geology is to be of service to a professional man, it must be studied in a systematic manner. Without an intelligent appreciation of the subject as a whole, it is very hard or well-nigh impossible to gain an adequate working knowledge of any particular part. In the following pages, therefore, the subject is set forth mainly from the point of view of pure science. The student of applied science, however, should have little difficulty in distinguishing between matter of general interest, and that which is of special importance to him, as bearing directly on his own professional pursuits. To help in this discrimination two sizes of type have been employed - the smaller type being commonly reserved for details or discussions of import mainly or exclusively to students of pure science. With regard to the matter in larger type, the intelligent student will use his own discretion. To others than mining men, for example, the chapters dealing with ore-formations will not call for much studious consideration.

Excerpt from Practical Oil Geology: The Application of Geology to Oil Field Problems In making a revision of the first edition the author wishes especially to thank Messrs. Johnson and Huntley of Pittsburgh, and Fred Pack on the United States Geological Survey, for their published criticisms of the first edition of "Practical Oil Geology." He also wishes to thank his many friends and fellow geologists and engineers, especially Mowry Bates and J. W. Lewis of Tulsa, for their suggestions. The industry is so extensive and the work of the geologist is so broad that the writer feels he has but touched on the many uses of geology in oil-field practice, but he hopes the book will prove useful. Certainly it has already more than fulfilled the writer's expectations for which he is deeply appreciative to the reading public.
