GSV Bulletin 59 - Geology of the Melbourne district, Victoria
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Product description:Preface In Recent years the Mines Department has handled a large and steadily increasing number of enquiries relating to various aspects of the geology, underground water and mineral resources of the Melbourne area. This bulletin on the geology of Melbourne and its environs has been prepared to fill the need for general information of this type. The volume is intended to accompany and provide an explanatory text to the geological map of Melbourne and Suburbs (scale 1:31 680) which was published in 1959. It also fulfils the function of a general reference book and introduces the reader to the work that has been done to date and the problems that remain to be solved. The bulletin takes the form of a symposium of articles by various geologists of the Mines Department. Several of the articles are written so as to be readily understood by the interested layman, but others, from the nature of the subject, have required a more technical treatment. Geological information in many fields is accumulating very rapidly and it is hoped that the subject matter may be brought up to date from time to time by the publication of new editions.
