Publisher: AAPG,; First Thus edition (January 1, 1962)
Book Condition: Very good
“…All papers in this volume were presented orally at a symposium on the classification of carbonate rocks at Denver on April 27, 1961, under the joint auspices of the American Association of Petroleum Geologists and the Society of Economic Paleontologists and Mineralogists. In this collection of papers an attempt has been made to cover the full range of concepts, including those emphasizing descriptive classification, genetic classification, the importance of depositional fabric, the classification of ancient as well as modern carbonates, the application of classification to interpretation with major carbonate provinces, and finally, a review setting forth the complex background and problems against which the classifications have been devised. “
