Reviews
This is an excellent book - Geological Magazine; It will be particularly useful to final year undergraduate students and researchers needing a good introduction to particular aspects of gold mineralization. - Mineralogical Magazine; The overall coverage of the book is uncommonly well balanced. - Economic Geology; Exploration geologists.... will welcome this summary as providing a platform for the next metallogenetic break-through. - Australian Mineral Foundation; .... very concise well-rounded information package, especially for students and all geoscientists interested in basic information on gold in general. - Mineralum Deposita; All authors are recognized experts on the topics they write about... there is no other single book that I know that covers the entire field of geology and exploration at such a generally high level of quality - Chronique de la Recherche Miniere; Those who are interested in gold metallogeny will find an abundance of information... a valuable contribution to the literature by putting together excellent reviews of the state of gold metallogeny and some of the exploration methods - Scientific Drilling; The contributors are undisputed authorities in their own particular fields. The book is written for professional geoscientists but would equally serve as a first class source book for the less experienced researcher: there are over 1300 references cited which make up almost 15% of the text - Mining Magazine; The range of topics covered is comprehensive, such that a specialist in one field can obtain significant information on other related fields.... Whatever the topic, however, the expertise of the appropriate author(s) is clearly evident. - Journal of Geochemical Exploration

Synopsis
Within the last decade, the high and continuing demand for gold has prompted a global gold rush on a scale never before seen, not even in the heady days of Ballarat, California and the Yukon. Gold is being sought on every continent and, with very few exceptions, in every country around the world. Such interest and fierce competition has demanded considerable innovation and improvement in exploration techniques paralleled by a rapid expansion of the geological database and consequent genetic modelling for the many different types of gold deposits now recognized. This proliferation of data has swamped the literature and left explorationist and academic alike unable to sift more than a small proportion of the accumulating information. This new book represents an attempt to address this major problem by providing succinct syntheses of all major aspects of gold metallogeny and exploration, ranging from the chemical distribution of gold in the Earth's crust, and the hydrothermal chemistry of gold, to Archaean and Phanerozoic lode deposits, epithermal environments, chemical sediments, and placer deposits, and culminates in chapters devoted to geochemical and geophysical exploration, and the economics of gold deposits. Each chapter is written by geoscientists who are acknowledged internationally in their respective fields, thus guaranteeing a broad yet up-to-date coverage. In addition, each chapter is accompanied by reference lists which provide readers with access to the most pertinent and useful publications.
