The reserves, or extractable fraction, of the fuel-mineral endowment are sufficient to supply the bulk of the world's energy requirements for the immediately forseeable future-well into the next century according to even the most pessimistic predictions. But increasingly sophisticated exploration concepts and technology must be employed to maintain and, if possible, add to the reserve base. Most of the world's fuel-mineral resources are in sedimentary rocks. Any procedure or concept that helps describe, under stand, and predict the external geometry and internal attributes of major sedimentary units can therefore contribute to discovery and recovery of coal, uranium, and petroleum.

Reviews for Terrigenous Clastic Depositional Systems
"I highly recommend this fine book - the authors and publishers are to be congratulated. Adopt it, buy it!" Sedimentary Geology "...an excellent and very welcome addition that should be on the bookshelf of anyone seriously engaged in energy exploration." - The American Association of Petroleum Geologists Bulletin
