In 2000, McGraw-Hill merged Platts with other like assets to turn the company into a provider of energy information. [4] In 2016, when McGraw-Hill changed its name to S&P Global, the Platts division was renamed S&P Global Platts. Platts' first significant acquisition came in 2001, when it acquired FT Energy. [7]

The McGraw-Hill Encyclopedia of Science & Technology is an English-language multivolume encyclopedia, specifically focused on scientific and technical subjects, and published by McGraw-Hill Education. [1] The most recent edition in print is the eleventh edition, copyright 2012 (ISBN 9780071778343), comprising twenty volumes.
The original rock, known as the protolith, transforms into other mineral types or other forms of the same minerals, by recrystallization. [5] The temperatures and pressures required for this process are always higher than those found at the Earth's surface: temperatures greater than 150 to 200 °C and pressures greater than 1500 bars.

Aside from albite, these characteristic minerals are water bearing, and may contribute to mantle melting. These minerals are also vital in the formation of glaucophane, which is associated with blueschist facies. The onset of a low-pressure phase of lawsonite is the most significant marker of prehnite-pumpellyite facies metamorphism.
The minerals are classified into groups based on these structures. In each of the 7 thermodynamically stable crystalline forms or polymorphs of crystalline quartz, only 2 out of 4 of each the edges of the {SiO 4 } tetrahedra are shared with others, yielding the net chemical formula for silica: SiO 2 .
