Fluid Inclusion Studies: Principle, Problems, and Practice aims to help readers overcome these problems by analyzing challenges and pitfalls and providing a practical guide for conducting their studies. Fluid inclusion study is a powerful tool in the field of the Earth science, especially in the study of mineral and oil and gas deposits. Fluid inclusions are samples of paleo-fluids entrapped in minerals and can provide indispensable information about the compositions of the fluids, and the temperature and pressure conditions of the host mineral formation. The principles are well established and generally easy to understand, however many scientists underestimate the complexities of the subject and make some common mistakes in data collection and interpretation. Includes down to earth discussion of common pitfalls in fluid inclusion studies, allowing scientists to avoid mistakes in actual studiesFeatures a problem-oriented approach that makes it easy for scientists to pinpoint problems and solutionsIncludes unique applications of fluid inclusions, including applications in plate subduction systems, geothermal systems, environmental studies, and extraterrestrial studies INDICE: 1. Introduction 2. Principles and methods of fluid inclusion studies 3. Problems, obstacles and practices of fluid inclusion studies 4. Applications of fluid inclusions 5. Other applications
