Edited by Frank
Hughes a highly successful exploration geologist and a group of specialist
advisors Geology of the Mineral Deposits of Australia and Papua New Guinea
covers the major mines and mineral prospects of this area. Presented in two hard
cover volumes Geology of the Mineral Deposits of Australia and Papua New Guinea
follows the general format of the highly sought after monograph and proceedings
of 1955 1965 and 1975 on the economic geology of Australia and Papua New Guinea
which are now collectors’ items. It also includes a group of general and
introductory papers followed by a chapter on mineral deposits in each of the
major metallogenic provinces.
This monograph
reflects the enthusiasm and interest of today with the current emphasis on
nickel in the 1975 monograph. Two folded geological maps are included in a back
pocket of the volume one each of Australia and Papua New Guinea to be used as a
locality index.
