The Mineralogy of Scotland is a comprehensive volume on the minerals found in Scotland, written by Matthew Forster Heddle and originally published in 1901. The book is divided into two volumes, with the first volume covering the general geology and mineralogy of Scotland, while the second volume contains detailed descriptions of individual mineral species. The first volume provides a thorough overview of Scotland's geology and mineralogy, including discussions on the country's various rock formations, mineral veins, and mineral deposits. Heddle also delves into the history of mineral collecting in Scotland, as well as the various methods used to identify and classify minerals. The second volume of the book contains detailed descriptions of over 400 different mineral species found in Scotland. Each entry includes information on the mineral's physical properties, chemical composition, crystal structure, and occurrence in Scotland. Heddle also includes detailed illustrations and photographs of many of the minerals discussed in the book. Overall, The Mineralogy of Scotland is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the minerals of Scotland or the broader field of mineralogy. Heddle's extensive knowledge and passion for the subject shine through in his writing, making this book an engaging and informative read for both professionals and amateurs alike.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
