Description
In this book, you will not find a magic word that opens a cave full of treasures, nor a treasure island map. However, there is a guide on where and how to find real gemstones from our inanimate nature, which are sometimes incredibly beautiful, much more beautiful than the film treasures made of colored glass. With a bit of luck, after reading this book, you might find your own real 'gemstones.' The book is intended for both beginner and advanced mineral collectors, as well as adventurous nature lovers seeking unusual activities. Each location includes very precise geographical positions (GPS coordinates, maps), as well as a list and description of found minerals, including the date of discovery and its current status regarding the possibility of finds. It also features rich photographic documentation, descriptions of two previously unknown locations, dozens of minerals found for the first time at these locations, mostly very rare minerals, some theory, sample archiving, legal regulations, etc.
