Summary

Zircon Growth explores the multifaceted nature of zircon, positioning it as more than just a gemstone but as a critical archive for understanding Earth's history. Zircon's ability to incorporate uranium makes it invaluable for uranium-lead dating, providing insights into geological events spanning billions of years. The book delves into zircon formation, coloration, and the application of geochronology to uncover the secrets of Earth's early history.

 
The book investigates the diverse environments where zircon crystallizes, from magmatic intrusions to metamorphic terrains, revealing how these conditions influence its growth and morphology. It also examines the causes of color variations in zircon, linking trace element incorporation and radiation damage to specific geological events.

 
By integrating field studies, experimental petrology, and advanced analytical techniques, Zircon Growth provides a holistic view of this mineral's role in deciphering Earth's past. The book progresses across chapters that build upon each other, from introducing zircon's fundamental properties to exploring its applications through case studies.

Witness to Roswell 75th...

Thomas J. Carey, Donald R. Schmitt

“When I finished Witness to Roswell, I said to myself, ‘Case closed!’ for the very wealth and sheer weight of eyewitness testimony.”—George Noory, host, Coast to Coast AM This classic in the field of UFOology is filled with hard-hitting eyewitness testimony of one of the most important events of all time: the actual recovery of a UFO outside of Roswell, New Mexico, in 1947. For more than 70 years, government authorities have led us to believe the wreckage was merely a very conventional weather balloon—but the witnesses who were there continue to tell a different story.Witness to Roswell once again provides a "can't put down" written account of what really transpired in Roswell decades ago. It pries loose the truth the government doesn't want us to know including the revelations of Walter Haut. This edition includes: A growing litany of deathbed confessions describing the "little people" recovered at the crash site.The most comprehensive time line of events ever published on this seminal event.The identity of the Boeing engineer called in to examine the exotic wreckage from the crash.What really took place at the Roswell base hospital and what nurse actually ordered the children’s caskets.The story of the soldier who wore gloves at the dinner table after guarding the "bodies." Clearly, the implications of this information are foreboding. One need only look at the fact that officials now have four explanations for this historic event—but to which one do all the witnesses testify on their deathbeds?Witness to Roswell once again demonstrates to the world that no statute of limitation applies to the truth: We are not alone. This anniversary edition includes a new introduction by the authors and additional material.

North York Moors and Yorkshire...

Tony Waltham

This book is one of a popular series that seeks to tell the story of some of Britain's most beautiful landscapes. Written with the general reader – the walker, the lover of the countryside – firmly in mind, these pages open the door to a fascinating story of bygone oceans, deltas, mineralisation and glacial landscapes.
Millions of years ago, rocks that now form the lovely terrains of the Moors and Wolds were laid down on the floors of shallow seas, and were then deformed by plate tectonics before being shaped by streams and rivers. The sandstones were left to form the high Moors, whereas the chalk was carved into the rolling Wolds. Ice Age lakes came and went, and all the time wave action was fretting the coastline into glorious and varied profiles.
With the help of numerous maps, diagrams and photographs, most of which are taken from his personal collection, geologist Tony Waltham tells the fascinating story of eastern Yorkshire, explaining just how the landscapes of sandstone uplands, chalk hills and clay vales came to look as they do. Including suggestions for walks and places to visit to appreciate the best of the inland and coastal landforms, this accessible and readable book opens up amazing new perspectives for all who are interested in the diverse landscapes of this beautiful area.
