About this book
Guidebook 6 of the Bureau of Economic Geology at the University of Texas at Austin was written by Roselle M. Girard for amateurs, with sketches by Bill M. Harris. It first appeared in February 1964 and was reprinted several times through 1979. Opening sections explain how rocks and minerals form and how to tell minerals apart by colour, lustre, hardness, streak and cleavage. Identification charts and collecting advice follow, then entries on Texas rocks and minerals from anhydrite and barite to quartz, topaz and volcanic ash, with a glossary and reading list.
