INTRODUCTION Water forms an essential part of every living being. After air‚ water is the most important necessity for life. Water plays a number of functions for the body. It serves as the body ’s transportation system‚ it acts as a lubricant‚ it regulates the body temperature etc. The eulogy for water is an unending thing. In fact more than 2/3rd of the human body is made of water. The importance of water for human body can be well accessed from the fact that if the amount of water in our body is

Minerals are elements that originate in the Earth and cannot be made by living organisms. They are natural compounds formed through geological processes and are what remains as ash when plant or animal tissue is burned or decompose completely after death. Minerals are inorganic substances which means they are not formed by living matter and contain no carbon‚ and can be simply defined as chemical molecules which cannot be reduced to simpler substances. To be classified as a "true" mineral‚ a substance

MATALLIC MENIRALS ROLL NO: 07 Metallic Minerals On an auspicious day‚ sometime around a million years ago‚ a member of the Homo habilis species stood erect and walked steadily on his two feet and his two hands became totally free. A new species – Homo erectus—began its journey on a new evolutionary track. This great change took around four million years after his ancestors – the hominids — broke free from the lineage of apes and chimpanzees. But ‚ perhaps for the next seven to eight hundred

Mineral Exploration Mineral exploration is the initial stage of the mining cycle. It is a sequential process of information gathering that assesses the mineral potential of a given area. In simple words it is the search for mineral deposits. The reason of exploration is to trace a new source of metal or useful minerals. This includes industrial minerals like silica or clay minerals‚ metals like iron‚ lead‚ zinc‚ etc.‚ and precious metals and gemstones like gold and diamonds. Types of Mineral Exploration

All minerals have four properties: 1. All minerals are naturally occurring 2. All minerals are inorganic (that means non-living) 3. A different chemical formula can be written for each mineral and that formula is constant for that mineral. ex. Galena is PbS- that is it has one lead atom (Pb) and one sulfur (S) atom in each molecule. 4. Most minerals have an unique crystalline shape given the right growing conditions (like in a cave). Compounds are substances that has two or

discovered in 1852 by a mineralogist by the name of John P. Calcite. Calcite is a carbonate mineral that is usually white or colorless‚ but can have variety of colors due to impurities. It is one of the world’s most important minerals and is the most common. Calcite is one of the softest minerals and can be found in sedimentary and metamorphic rocks. Calcite has more practical uses than most other minerals. This mineral can be found in limestone and marble which is makes up most of the Earth’s crust. The
