05-MCM-MI Mineralogy

Representative Oliver Plümper

Learning Contents:

Introduction to basic principles and concepts in mineralogy covering minerals, (synthetic) materials and rocks. This focus comprises the systematics of minerals, their properties, mineral chemistry and stability, and dissolution/corrosion and growth processes. Introduction of thermodynamic and kinetic theory that governs stabilities and rates and mechanisms of mineral precipitation (nucleation and growth) and dissolution processes.

Learning Outcomes, Targeted Competencies:

Students understand the principles of mineral/crystal formation, stability, and destruction
- the underlying thermodynamic and kinetic concepts
- the resulting properties
- the processes that form, alter and destroy crystalline matter as a stochastic process
