A mineral economist recently retired from the Indian Bureau of Mines lists and briefly explains the principal uses of 49 minerals, as well as dimension stone and crushed stone. The minerals are organized alphabetically, starting with asbestos. Some chapters, such as the one on celestite and strontianite, are only two pages long, listing their seven uses. Other longer chapters, such as the one on clay, first review the mineral's history, properties, and classification. The final short chapter on groundwater and surface freshwater seems out of place.
