Abstract: Abstract—with all of the news reports of global warming and other environmental troubles facing society today, one might wonder if mineral science has any role to play in solving these problems. It certainly does! Traditionally, the major application of minerals and mineral science has been in the understanding of how rocks form (petrogenesis) and behave. This is essentially the study of the solid part of the earth, or petrology. Environmental mineralogy is by no means new, but it is certainly seeing an impressive rise in scope and activity. Monographs review the immense literature and diverse applications of environmental mineralogy. Recently, the Mineralogist published special "green" issues that focus on environmental mineralogy. The important role of minerals in many interesting environmental problems makes today a very exciting time for mineralogy .Environmental mineralogical topics as the effects of minerals on human health, minerals that form in surficial !
acidic environments, and microbe–mineral interactions. Mineral resources are an important source of wealth for a nation but before they are harnessed, they have to pass through the stages of exploration, mining and processing. Different types of environmental damage and hazards inevitably accompany the three stages of mineral development. The negative effect on the environment of the activities involved in harnessing the minerals. An attempt will also be made to examine the possible precautions and remedies that can be applied in order to mitigate the effect of adverse environmental impact of mining activities. Clearly, the major goal of this special issue is to highlight some of the important research that is occurring in the new, multidisciplinary field of environmental mineralogy. Another goal is to reveal to the members and officers of the mineralogical societies an indication of the range of mineralogical research that can be considered pertinent to the environmenta!
l sciences. Lastly, the society officers and the journal editors want
to encourage the submission of more manuscripts on this challenging topic. Environmental mineralogy is by no means new, but it is certainly seeing an impressive rise in scope and activity. One indication of this is the number of recent books and monographs that review the immense literature and diverse applications of environmental mineralogy. The sidebar lists numerous examples of such review volumes.
