This book on Applied Geology and Geophysics in Exploration: A Synoptic Perspective captures application of commonly encountered selected major rocks and minerals' identification and description from rock-forming minerals and their uses, as intimate part of rock-making processes. Similarly, the book provides understanding of the different subsurface geological and geophysical structural features for petroleum exploration rationale. This synoptic applied geology and geophysics book also encompasses the dynamic earth system and processes; generally known as geohazards, especially earthquakes, which negatively affect the human development activities already achieved. Some comparative illustrations have been extensively captured in the description and identification properties for some selected rocks and minerals which further provide comparison with the results that will have been obtained from the field studies. This is a handy and resourceful book for practising geoscientists in Africa and beyond.
