The Geology of the Guiana Shield (Oxford Monographs on Geology and Geophysics)

The Guiana Shield is an area of special importance, especially to those concerned with Precambrian geology because it provides a perspective on a part of Earth history not well represented elsewhere. For economic geologists, its mineral resource potential is just beginning to be understood. This overview of current knowledge will greatly help geologists already working in the area, draw attention to the need for mineral exploration research, and encourage the inclusion of the Shield in future Precambrian studies.Gibbs, Allan K. is the author of 'The Geology of the Guiana Shield (Oxford Monographs on Geology and Geophysics)', published 1993 under ISBN 9780195073508 and ISBN 0195073509.
