Welcome to volume 9 issue 3 of Monthly Mineral Chronicles. This is a publication pulled together by a mineral collector for mineral collectors.
This month, in this 61 page full-colour issue we have the following articles:
- Quartz Vein, Buffalo Mountain, Nevada. Rolf tells us about the discovery of a surprisingly diverse suite of mineral species within a small quartz outcrop.
- Minerals and Elements: Lanthanides, a series of elements famed for their nearly identical chemical properties and their role in high-tech applications.
- Mineral Snippet – Celestine. The most common strontium-bearing mineral.
- Illustrated Minerals of Australia Volume 5, Part 10 – Molybdite to Montmorillonite.
- Locality Snippet – Wasson Bluff, Nova Scotia, Canada, a world-renowned geological site, famous for its position along the Triassic-Jurassic boundary.
- Vale Ambros Kissling
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.
