弗朗哥·皮拉伊诺Pp. 679. 2013.斯普林格ISBN 978-94-007-4443-1。价格：€129.95.这是皮拉伊诺的第四本书，前三本是《热液矿床-勘探地质学家的原理和基本概念》（1992年）、《矿床和地幔柱》（2000年）和《热液过程和矿物系统》（2009年）。在这本书出版之前，类似的主题在1990年在中国出版的一本五卷本的巨著中有过介绍，这本书由一个编辑委员会适当地撰写，共1,585页，超过25章。这更温和和易于管理的精装本文本由Pirajno涵盖了一个巨大的主题从来没有尝试过一个单一的作者。这本书用八个章节讨论了中国的矿藏，包括导言，正如作者自己承认的那样，这些章节的分组相当奇怪，“有些混乱”。这些章节按所讨论的所有类型矿床的承载构造块体进行分组，无论存款年龄如何。虽然不完全清楚，但似乎章节首先处理较老的块体，然后处理较年轻的盆地沉积物，其中有一章专门讨论皮拉伊诺显然最喜欢的话题，地幔柱。本书的介绍章节涵盖了各种主题，包括中国采矿历史和地质科学发展的概述。还有一个有用的部分是关于中国语言风格和在随后的翻译中可能出现的混乱。正如作者所指出的那样，在中国地质文献的英文版本中，拼写的一致性可能是一个挑战。然而，这一部分明显没有涉及许多重要的单位名称，这些名称源于少数民族语言，如哈萨克语、藏语、蒙古语和满语。随着时间的推移，这些词经历了越来越多的普通话拼写。例如大兴安岭、塔里木盆地和准噶尔盆地。鉴于本章对拼写的一贯处理，...
Franco Pirajno. Pp. 679. 2013. Springer. ISBN 978-94-007-4443-1. Price: €129.95. This is Pirajno’s fourth book, the first three being Hydrothermal Mineral Deposits – Principles and Fundamental Concepts for the Exploration Geologist (1992), Ore Deposits and Mantle Plumes (2000), and Hydrothermal Processes and Mineral Systems (2009). Prior to publication of this book, a similar topic was covered in a massive five-volume set, published in 1990 in China, covering 1,585 pages in more than 25 chapters, suitably authored by an editorial committee. This more modest and manageable hardback text by Pirajno covers a huge topic never before attempted by a single author. The book discusses China’s mineral deposits in eight chapters, including the Introduction, that are rather oddly grouped and “somewhat confusing,” as the author himself admits. The chapters are grouped by hosting tectonic blocks for all types of discussed mineral deposits regardless of deposit age. Although not entirely clear, it appears that the chapters treat older blocks first, and younger basin-hosted deposits later, with a special chapter on Pirajno’s apparently favorite topic, mantle plumes. The book’s introductory chapter covers a variety of topics, including an overview of China’s mining history and the development of the geological sciences. There is also a useful section on Chinese language styles and the confusion that can arise in their subsequent translation. As the author notes, consistent spelling can be a challenge in English versions of Chinese geological literature. However, notably absent from this section is the treatment of the many important unit names with roots in ethnic minority languages such as Kazakh, Tibetan, Mongolian, and Manchu. These have undergone progressively more Mandarin spellings over time. Examples include the Da-Hinggan block, Tarim basin, and Junggar basin. Given the consistent treatment of spelling in this chapter, …
