provinces examined include those of Portugal (A. M. R. Neiva), west central Spain (J. Saavedra), and Sardinia (M. Biste). African t in-tantalumniobium acid rocks and pegmatites are represented by papers by Bowden and by Matheis et al. on Nigerian provinces and by Legg and Namateba on Zambian pegmatites; the Thailand tin-bearing granites are also discussed, Norman and Trangcotchasan favouring ore deposition from fluids derived from a magma rather than from meteoricconnate waters. Reports are also given on a stanniferous peraluminous granitic pluton in Nova Scotia and on the numerous Bolivian tin deposits; Dulski et al. consider that the Bolivian Tertiary tin porphyries must have inherited the tin from the older metallogenetic crust. More general papers cover the mineralogy and geochemistry of the group IVb elements, the zoning of tin-tungsten-molybdenum metallization and the reasons for the association of tin and fluorine in natural assemblages, and B. van de Pijpekamp reports that using a matrix of fifty-three mineralogical, textural, and structural features, a measure of tin potential can be obtained from thinsections of the rocks of granitic complexes. The importance of fluorine is emphasized also by the experimental work of D. A. C. Manning who demonstrates a 100 ~ lowering of the minimum liquidus temperature and a considerable change in minimum melting composition for the addition of 4 wt. ~ F to the system Q A b O r H 2 0 at 1 kbar. Other papers include reports on mineralization around the Drammen granite, Norway, the Leinster granite, Ireland, and Precambrian granites (Ubearing) in Sweden. The book gives an excellent insight into current thinking on the continuing controversies involving ore genesis associated with granitic rocks. Further applications of modern chemical and isotopic methods are clearly urgently needed before sufficient understanding of the processes involved can lead to the establishment of proven criteria for identification of potential ore-bearing granites by mineralogical and geochemical methods. The book is well-produced with clear diagrams and abundant full references with each paper. Its reasonable price should encourage wide readership. R. A. HOWIE
