From the author of "Minerals of Arizona-a Field Guide for Collectors", comes a second field guide for Arizona collectors. This is not an updated version of "Minerals of Arizona", but an entirely new, expanded field guide designed for not only the mineral collector, but for fossil and fluorescent collectors as well. No other Arizona rockhound book contains special independent sctions on fossils and fluorescents. The field research for this work took over 3 years during which the author traveled over 25,000 miles across Arizona and visited over 300 potential collecting sites. To aide the collector, Minerals, Fossils, and Fluorescents includes: - 90 collecting sites complete with site photographs and National Geographic Topo! (C) maps. - Global positioning system coordinates for each location. - A difficulty scale informing the reader of the effort required to reach, navigate, and collect at each site. - chapters covering the basic science of the minerals, fossils, and fluorescents to be collected. - The geological formations at each site and the scientific properties of the speimens found there. - 20 pages of full color photographs of specimens by the well-known mineral photographer Jeffrey Scovil including 5 pages of fluorescent minerals. - Over 400 pages of text, maps, and collecting site and specimen photographs.
