The application of high resolution NMR in mineralogical and geochemical sciences has been developed deeply in a recent decade. It gives new insights into the structures and dynamic properties of silicates, aluminosilicates and zeolites. This review will briefly summarize some fundamental aspects of the theory and experimental practice of NMR spectroscopy and application of NMR methods to mineralogical and geochemical problems. Although cited examples are limited, the detailes could be found in excellent textbooks and review papers referenced in this paper.
