    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Short description:

    This companion volume to the author's Geological Evolution of South East Asia (1989) covers the economic geology of the region.

    Long description:

    This is the first and only book to give a regional analysis of the oil, gas, coal, and mineral deposits of South-East Asia. The hydrocarbon-bearing basins are described in the complicated regional Tertiary tectonics, for which the region is the world's foremost field laboratory. The book is a companion to the author's 1989 Geological Evolution of South-East Asia. (Now to be reissued by the Geological Society of Malaya.)

    The stratigraphy, structures, hydrocarbon and coal deposits of the major Tertiary basins are described. Regional similarities and differencs are analysed.

    Important ophiolite-related chromium, nickel and copper deposits, and volcanic-related porphyry copper and epithermal gold-silver deposits are described from the island-arc terrains of the Philipines and Indonesia. The Sundaland continental peninsular core has been the world's foremost source of tungsten and tin. The great placer tin mines of Indonesia, Malaysia and Thailand are now in decline. Iron, antimony, non-volcanic gold, fluorite, barite, lead-zinc and gemstone deposits are also described.

    Review from previous edition Because of the emphasis on description, the book will retain its value as various geotectonic theories and process-focused hypotheses wax and wane. The author's personal opinions are clear, something which I found refreshing and entertaining, not least because he has a very long and extensive practical experience of the region with a broad range of interests. The book provides an extremely useful introduction to South-East Asia and is notably much more readable than its earlier companion volume... the author is to be congratulated on a valuable achievement.
