Mineral Veins

In "Mineral Veins: An Enquiry Into Their Origin, Founded On A Study Of The Auriferous Quartz Veins Of Australia," Thomas Belt delves into the formation and characteristics of mineral veins, with a specific focus on gold-bearing quartz veins found in Australia. This detailed study presents observations and theories about the geological processes responsible for the creation of these veins.

Belt's work offers valuable insights into the field of economic geology and provides a historical perspective on mining practices and geological understanding during the period. This book is of interest to geologists, mining engineers, and anyone curious about the natural processes that concentrate valuable minerals within the Earth's crust.
