The Ozarks highland region of the Midwest, located in southern
Missouri and northern Arkansas, contains beautiful mineral
specimens for those with sharp eyes and a keen interest to discover
minerals. Over 500 images represent the collectible minerals of the
western Ozarks tristate district and Missouri s Viburnum Trend.
Barite and fluorite as well as a variety of colorful copper,
cobalt, nickel, and iron minerals grace the pages of this book, as
do various forms of calcite and quartz, the latter of which can be
a rock hound's delight. The fascinating and approachable text
discusses these "Mississippi Valley Type" (MVT) minerals, their
deposition, how they fit into the broader scope of North American
mineralogy, and the locations of MVT minerals around the world. A
focus of the book are those minerals that historically occur along
the Ozarks' extensive waterways. This unique book is a must for
anyone fascinated with the earth's natural beauty."
