First Field Guide to Rocks & Minerals, the latest addition
to the popular Struik Nature series, introduces the most
important and interesting rocks and minerals from our geologically exciting region.
The guide details 30 minerals and 18 major rock types,
focusing on those that are best known or most commonly
found. A short introduction provides an overview of the topic;
colourful photographs throughout, both of the rocks and minerals and of the particular terrain in which they are found,
complement the clear text and aid identification in the field.
First Field Guide to Rocks & Minerals is a useful resource
for the beginner geologist, curious novice, or anyone with a budding interest in southern Africa's unique geological heritage.
