Since last 4 years, GATE & JAM aspirants have felt the need for a specialised textbook dedicated to numerical problems in geology, which would help them prepare better as per the current trends of the exam. This book has been written with an exam-oriented approach to fulfil that requirement of the aspirants. Applications of various geological concepts are illustrated through numerous solved problems with step-bystep explanations. The pre-published version of this book (limited copies were released in January 2020) became an instant hit among the GATE aspirants. Post-exam analysis revealed that 85% of numerical problems in GATE 2020, and 90% of numerical problems in JAM 2020 could be directly solved from the book.
