The civil engineers need to build their construction with success, stability and economy. For this, they need close examination of the site rocks, their structure, ground water conditions and so on. Keeping this in view the present manual deals with the study of minerals, study of rocks and model geological maps -the three aspects of geology-which suggest topography, lithology strike and dip, thickness of beds, and so on. This manual may also be used directly as Engineering Geology Lab Record by the students in the college as it enclose all needed information in a consise form. Incidentally, a civil engineer also needs basic knowledge of common economics minerals because some times he/she comes across such valuable minerals during his/her work (such as ghat road cuttings, tunneling and reservoirs). He/She may pass on this information tot he concerned specialist so that they evaluate the worth and importance of those deposits. To fulfil this, details of common economics minerals are included in this manual.
