History of mineralogy

The study of the minerals and the explanatory theories of the presence of minerals is extremely old. Mineralogy was surely born from the will of the men to find the matters essential to their survivals, like flint mines during the age of the stone, then successively like the cuive one, iron. Other belief, as the Lithothérapie held the attention of the scientists. The first mineralogical theory of which we have the trace were established with Babylon, the sciences greco-Romans inheriting this one. In addition, the China and the ancient India in the Prana knew to also develop clean knowledge. They are besides the Chinese who, at the 11th century outlined the first versions of the concept of Géomorphologie. However, the first really scientific studies which index the ores systematically are originating in the Europe the Renaissance. First concrete results on the formation of the minerals dates of discovered Microscope and principle of the Crystallography at the 17th century
