令人着迷的化学和矿物学变化导致它们受到深入研究。在本出版物的简介中，作者指出“如果我们要充分了解固体地球的运作方式，就必须了解它们的起源”。他还强调了它们作为多种工业原材料（例如磷酸盐、蛭石、铌、铜、稀土元素）来源的经济重要性。目前已知的地点超过 2000 个，其中包括 300 多个碳酸岩。作者编制了这份碱性岩和碳酸岩目录，因为以前没有进行过世界范围的调查。他将所有可追踪的矿点分为四个部分，第一部分涉及北美和南美。第 2、3 和 4 部分（待出版）将按顺序讨论： 非洲；苏联；以及亚洲、欧洲（不包括苏联）、澳大利亚、南极洲和海洋岛屿。碱性岩分类的主要标准是存在模式长石（包括方沸石）和/或碱性辉石和角闪石。还包括钾长石、某些超镁铁质和黄长石岩石（例如铁镁长石）和一些高钾岩石（但不包括金伯利岩）。碳酸岩包括火成岩和交代岩类型以及一些可能是变质岩的类型。该目录按全国范围排列，每次出现都分配一个国家编号。信息包括：地理坐标；复合体的简要描述（包括简化的地质图）、岩石学关系、一些专门地球化学研究的主要结果；经济方面；年龄数据；每次出现的重要已发表作品的参考文献，以及每个国家部分末尾的完整参考文献列表。地点索引引用国家编号和页码。第 1 部分包括加拿大（165 次）、格陵兰岛（44）、墨西哥（17）、美国（144）、阿根廷（17）、玻利维亚（7）、巴西（116）、智利（3）、哥伦比亚（3）、哥斯达黎加（3）、多米尼加共和国（1）、厄瓜多尔（1）、圭亚那（3）、海地（1）、洪都拉斯（1）、 巴拉圭（26）、秘鲁（4）、乌拉圭（3）、委内瑞拉（2）。目录制作精良，采用大页格式（A4），包含丰富的事实信息；参考文献列表特别有价值。一个可能的问题是碱性岩的分类标准导致遗漏了一些与所包含的其他复合体在遗传上相关的复合体。因此，佛蒙特州的阿斯卡特尼复合体被省略，尽管它无疑是白山岩浆系列的成员。可能还有其他类似的遗漏。祝贺作者编制了这份详细的目录。有些事件仅在晦涩的期刊和调查报告中报道，使得这份综合列表对于从事碱性岩石工作的地质学家特别有用。因此，完整的目录将成为大学、调查和采矿公司图书馆以及专业工作人员的必备采购，尽管后者最终可能会发现整个目录的成本相当高昂。 C.M.B.亨德森
fascinating chemical and mineralogical variation has led to them being subjected to intensive study. In the introduction to this publication, the author points out that 'an understanding of their genesis is essential if we are to understand fully the workings of the solid earth'. He also stresses their economic importance as sources of a wide range of industrial raw materials (e.g. phosphate, vermiculite, Nb, Cu, rare earth elements). Over 2000 localities are now known, including more than 300 carbonatites. The author compiled this catalogue of alkaline rocks and carbonatites because no world-wide survey had been available previously He has included all occurrences that could be traced in four parts, the first of which deals with North and South America. Parts 2, 3 and 4 (to be published) will deal with, in order: Africa; U.S.S.R.; and Asia, Europe (excluding U.S.S.R.), Australasia, Antarctica, and the oceanic islands. The main criteria for classification as alkaline rocks are the presence of modal feldspathoids (including analcime) and/or alkaline pyroxenes and amphiboles. Also included are fenites, certain ultramafic and melilite-bearing rocks (e.g. alnfites), and some highly potassic rocks (but not kimberlites). Carbonatites include igneous and metasomatic types as well as some that may be metamorphic in origin. The catalogue is arranged nationally with each occurrence being assigned a national number. Information includes: geographic coordinates; brief descriptions of complexes (including simplified geological maps), petrographic relations, principal results of some specialized geochemical studies; economic aspects; age data; references to crucial published work for each occurrence, and a full reference list at the end of each national section. A locality index cites both national number and page number. Part 1 includes data for Canada (165 occurrences), Greenland (44), Mexico (17), U.S.A. (144), Argentina (17), Bolivia (7), Brazil (116), Chile (3), Colombia (3), Costa Rica (3), Dominican Republic (1), Ecuador (1), Guyana (3), Haiti (1), Honduras (1), Paraguay (26), Peru (4), Uruguay (3), Venezuela (2). The catalogue is well-produced on a large page format (A4) and contains abundant factual information; the reference lists are particularly valuable. One possible problem is that the classification criteria for alkaline rocks has led to the omission of some complexes which are genetically related to other complexes which are included. Thus the Ascutney complex, Vermont, is omitted even though it is undoubtedly a member of the White Mountain Magma Series. There may be other such omissions. The author is to be congratulated on compiling this detailed catalogue. Some of the occurrences are only reported in obscure journals and survey reports making this comprehensive list particularly useful for geologists working on alkaline rocks. Thus the full catalogue will be an essential purchase for university, survey and mining company libraries as well as for specialist workers, although the latter may eventually find the cost for the whole catalogue rather prohibitive.
