Synopsis

The present work describes the geology and raw materials of the state of Hesse comprehensively and up to date. Using the geological development history, the geological units of the country are presented in detail. In addition to geology and paleontology, soil science, raw material geology, engineering geology, hydrogeology and other topics are described in detail. The geological structural areas of Hesse are characterised by their own impressive landscapes. They range from the crystalline Odenwald to the Rheinische Schiefergebirge and the extensive Triassic deposits as well as the volcanite-dominated regions e.g. the Vogelsberg to the distribution areas of tertiary and quaternary sedimentary rocks. Under the coordination of the Hessian State Office for Nature Conservation, Environment and Geology as editor, more than 40 professionals have contributed the latest research results to this specialist book. A detailed table of contents, the place and subject register as well as an extensive and up-to-date literature compilation in the appendix of the book help to deepen special topics. With the geology of Hesse, a comprehensive and richly illustrated standard work appears for the first time, which is aimed at professionals in research, administration, engineering and planning offices as well as all geologically interested parties.
