Paperback. Zustand: Good. 159 pages. cover corners wornNew Zealand is a long, thin country, situated on the boundary between two of the Earth?s gigantic crustal plates. The central ridge of mountain ranges, stret ching from Fiordland to East Cape like a knobbly backbone, has been pushed up by huge earth processes as one plate collides and grinds against the other. Add to this the interaction of steep slopes and a climate that dumps a lot of water on them and you have a formula for collapse ? landslide! The huge faults that run like railway tracks through the central part of the country are also created by the confrontation of the plates, as the Pacific Plate tries to squeeze under the Australian Plate. The result? About 17,000 earthquakes each year! The lofty vol canic cones of the central North Island are minor copared with mighty Taupo, one of the most explosive and active volcanoes in the world.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - A reprint under a new ISBN, this handy reference guide will help you recognise and make sense of common (and some rare) rocks and minerals. Most are found on beaches and hillsides, in streams and elsewhere around the country. The introduction provides an overview of rocks and minerals, and contains diagrams and illustrations pointing out important details to be observed in the field. Observation is the key to identifying rocks and minerals: outwardly they can appear very similar but there are special visual clues to be deciphered before accurate identification is assured. With expert descriptions and full colour photographs, this book provides all the information you need to identify the 28 minerals and 53 rocks that are most commonly seen in New Zealand. Almost every kind of rock found on Earth can be seen in New Zealand, and most of the common minerals too. Some of the rarer 'home grown' rocks and minerals and those with special value to Maori are also included.…
