tailieunhanh - Encyclopedia of Global Resources part 75

Encyclopedia of Global Resources part 75 provides a wide variety of perspectives on both traditional and more recent views of Earth's resources. It serves as a bridge connecting the domains of resource exploitation, environmentalism, geology, and biology, and it explains their interrelationships in terms that students and other nonspecialists can understand. The articles in this set are extremely diverse, with articles covering soil, fisheries, forests, aluminum, the Industrial Revolution, the .

Lead Category Mineral and other nonliving resources Where Found Lead is widely distributed in the Earth s crust it has an estimated percentage of the crustal weight of making it more common than silver or gold but less common then copper or zinc these are the four minerals with which lead is most commonly found in ore deposits. All five may occur together in a deposit or only two or three may occur in concentrations sufficiently rich to be economically attractive to miners. Primary Uses The major use of lead in the United States is in the lead-acid batteries used in automotive vehicles. Because lead is so toxic a fact that has been known since ancient times many of its former uses have been curtailed or discontinued. While it is still used in cables ammunition solders shielding of radiation and electrical parts its use as an antiknock .
