Amphiboles Crystal Chemistry Phase Relations and Occurrence

This series of monographs represents continuation on an international basis of the previous series MINERALOGIE UNO PETROGRAPHIE IN EINZELOARSTELLUNGEN, published by Springer-Verlag. The voluminous results arising from recent progress in pure and applied re­ search increase the need for authoritative...
