The Arizona Geological Society's Digest 22, Ores and Orogenesis: Circum-Pacific Tectonics, Geologic Evolution, and Ore Deposits, was delivered by the printer today and is now on sale for $75 plus tax and shipping at the AZGS map & bookstore in Tucson.
The 622-page volume makes extensive use of color to present many of the talks from the hugely successful AGS symposium of the same name held in t
he fall of 2007. Editors Jon Spencer and Spencer Titley say about half the papers are tectonics-oriented, and half are about ore deposits. It's a powerful combination.AGS members can buy a copy at the monthly dinner meetings. 300 copies of the 1,000 copy press run were pre-ordered and are being mailed out now. The rest are expected to sell briskly.
