description: During the past centuries the non-renewable natural resources have changed the life of mankind. Utilization of these materials is still increasing and their availability will remain a fundamental issue throughout the next century. Similarly, the scientific and engineering knowledge also diversified in the last few decades. The driving force of these changes is the joint responsibility of scientists and engineers to economize continously the exploration, production, processing, transportation and storage of non-renewable natural resources. The Aim of this new series is to stimulate interdisciplinary discussion among mining, peteroleum and chemical engineers. The first volume of this series contains 46 selected papers of the 6th Symposium on Mining Chemistry held in 1998 at Siofok Hungary. These papers include topics on the chemical problems of conventional and enhanced oil and gas recovery, organic and inorganic geochemistry, mining chemistry, mineral processing and questions in environ
