Welcome to volume 7 issue 12 of Monthly Mineral Chronicles. This is a publication pulled together by a mineral collector for mineral collectors.
This month, in this 70 page full-colour issue we have the following articles:
- Finding Whewellite Crystals in Various Cactus Species – fascinating calcium oxalate minerals.
- Minerals and Elements – Zirconium, aiding in the dating of very old rocks.
- Mineral Snippet – Chalcanthite – A mineral that can easily be grown at home!
- Illustrated Minerals of Australia Volume 4, Part 4 – Kolarite to Kyanite.
- Geelong Show – One of my local shows, and on just after I came back from holiday. Timing!
- Locality Snippet – Hålsjöberg, Torsby, Sweden, an area mined for aluminium in Sweden.
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.
