In the book we have selected and described the most important minerals from the point of view of spreading and participation in the composition of the terrestrial crust and in terms of economic and scientific significance. The book was adopted the latest concepts on mineral systematic model proposed by IMA (International Mineralogical Association). The

Iron Sulfides Produced by Thermococcales: An Iron Detoxification Mechanism
Thermococcales, archaea from hydrothermal vents, promote iron sulfide precipitation, enabling survival in iron‐rich environments. Some cells become encrusted in pyrite and do not survive mineralization, while surviving cells activate metal detoxification genes. This biomineralization process allows the population to withstand toxic iron concentrations,

Redox behavior of tin in aluminosilicate melts: Implications for the fining process
Abstract Aluminosilicate glasses are widely used in everyday applications and can be seen as building blocks of modern technology, from display screens to glass‐ceramics. However, due to their high viscosities, gas bubbles can only be removed from aluminosilicate melts at high temperatures, leading to significant energy costs.

Transport of heavy minerals and heavy anthropogenic particles in the Rio Sella catchment and along the adjacent coast, northern Spain [PDF]
The Rio Sella in northern Spain drains a catchment area of around 1200 km2. It originates in the Picos de Europa and erodes a variety of outcropping lithologies, mainly of Palaeozoic and minor Mesozoic to Cenozoic age. These rocks include siliciclastics,

Crystal growth by precipitation under microgravity [PDF]
The importance of understanding the mechanisms associated with defect generation during growth and the influence of gravity is stressed. An experiment is described. The advantages of adapting this experiment to the FES are then discussed.

Chemical weathering of the volcanic soils of Isla Santa Cruz (Galápagos Islands, Ecuador) [PDF]
We present a study on weathering of volcanic soils using 43 profiles (131 horizons) sampled in Santa Cruz Island (Galapagos Islands). Several weathering indices, based on chemical composition, are used. Since the geological material is highly homogeneous

Bio-, Magneto- and event-stratigraphy across the K-T boundary [PDF]
Determining the time and the time structure of rare events in geology can be accomplished by applying three different and independent stratigraphic methods: Biostratigraphy, magneto-stratigraphy and event-stratigraphy.
