Geochemical methods of prospecting for and evaluation of minerals are applied widely today at all stages of geological exploration. However, geochemical methods of prospecting for many classes of non-metallic minerals have not been elaborated. This book contains a collection of the latest data on geochemical prospecting for non-metals, which is vaulable in view of the anticipated increase of consumption and utilization of non-metallic minerals in the future. The information on various types of raw material is presented in the following sequence: general data - genetic types, conditions of formation, geological prospecting indications; indicator minerals and elements; geochemical methods of prospecting along dispersion trains and haloes, plus hydrogeochemical and geobotanical methods; primary endogenic haloes; vertical geochemical zonality; methods, stages and sequence of work. This book should be of interest to geologists in both academia and industry.
