Monthly Mineral Chronicles Vol 5 No 8

Welcome to volume 5 issue 8 of Monthly Mineral Chronicles. This is a publication pulled together by a mineral collector for mineral collectors.

This month, in this 88 page full-colour issue we have the following articles:

  • In case you missed it…
  • Locality Snippet – Ma’ale Adumim, Palestine, a locality with some interesting and unique minerals and geology.
  • Mineral Snippet – Narsarsukite.
  • Illustrated Minerals of Australia. Volume 1, Part 18 – Corundum to Crocoite. The next installment of a significant undertaking documenting the 1,500 or so mineral species recorded in Australia.
  • Minerals and Elements: Oxygen. The next in the series on elements and minerals. This month, we look at a very reactive element that is essential to life.
  • History around Gold Camp, Arizona. Rolf tells us about lumber mills, mining, and bootlegging in southern Arizona.
  • Mineral Snippet – Ludlockite.

Again this month, for many of the excellent images, is the ability to click on the image to bring up a larger version. Not only do you get a bigger version, but in some cases, the image you see published may be a cropped version.

This issue is now available at Kofi.
