AGI Publishes 'The Consumer's Guide to Minerals'

Alexandria, VA – The American Geosciences Institute (AGI) announces the release of its publication, “The Consumer’s Guide to Minerals.” The importance of minerals in our everyday lives cannot be underestimated. “The Consumer’s Guide to Minerals” is a different take on them. Rather than focusing on visual and physical properties, this book explores minerals’ myriad uses in scientific research, manufacturing, medicine, and many commercial applications—some of which may even shock you. This digital exclusive is an important reference for students of applied science, geology, and economics; practicing engineers and professional geoscientists in government service, environment and sustainability; and those professionals working in the minerals industry or those serving the minerals industry.
