Author: James E. Mungall
Exploration for Platinum Group Element Deposits, Volume 35 (1st Edition) by James Mungall is a comprehensive and authoritative reference that examines the geological, geochemical, and geophysical principles behind the discovery and evaluation of platinum-group element (PGE) deposits.
This volume provides an in-depth overview of magmatic and hydrothermal processes controlling PGE concentration and distribution in the Earth’s crust. It explores the geochemistry of PGEs, their behavior in various environments—from low-temperature aqueous systems to high-temperature magmatic-hydrothermal settings—and the formation mechanisms of ore deposits such as stratiform intrusions, marginal series deposits, and supergene zones.
The book also discusses exploration methods, including geophysical signatures, geochemical prospecting, and lithogeochemical techniques, accompanied by global case studies such as those from the Sudbury Basin, Stillwater Complex, Great Dyke, and Lac des Iles. Each case study demonstrates practical approaches to exploration, emphasizing economic assessment, discovery strategies, and geological interpretation.
Richly illustrated and scientifically rigorous, this volume serves as an essential resource for economic geologists, exploration geochemists, mining engineers, and graduate students, providing both the theoretical background and practical insights needed to guide modern PGE exploration and resource evaluation.
