Mineralogy: Conserving Our Precious Minerals
The Wonders of Earth Science series covers subjects from the Earth‰۪s Interior, Mineralogy, Meteorology, Energy, Glaciers to Understanding Earthquakes and the Ozone Blanket. Students will develop a basic understanding of the fundamentals of Earth Science and work their way up to more complex subjects. While the Earth‰۪s surface may seem stationary and rock-steady it is always in motion. Scientists have studied earthquakes, volcanoes and other seismic activity and have evolved theories that explain the movement and deformation of the Earth‰۪s crust over millions of years. Includes suggestions for careers in this field of study.
