Sedimentary Petrology
Sedimentary Petrology by Maurice E. Tucker presents a comprehensive and accessible introduction to the composition, mineralogy, textures, structures, diagenesis, and depositional environments of sedimentary rocks, making it essential reading for geology students and professionals. The text explains how sedimentary rocks form, how to interpret their features in the field and laboratory, and how modern analytical advances have deepened understanding of processes such as microbial precipitation and microporosity development in mudrocks. Including detailed descriptions and illustrative examples, the book emphasizes practical applications of petrographic analysis to interpret Earth’s sedimentary record and its implications for environmental and resource studies.
