Summary
Basis of the morphological, structural, physical and chemical crystallography.
Systematic mineralogy – overview of the selected minerals with a view to a
rockforming minerals. Systematic petrography – eruptiv, sedimentary and
metamorphic rocks, their origin and classification. General geology - the
Earth, its origin, evolution and construction, lithospheric plates, theory
about layer and formation, basis of structural geology (connected and
unconnected geological structures), basis of exogenetic dinamics (weathering,
geological activity of ice, wind, water and gravitation).
