Foreword by AP Cartwright. Author's note suggests that the book is mainly for those who have a keen interest in geology and mineralogy in South Africa, but who don't necessarily have formal training in the subject. Chapters include: collecting; areas of interest; crystals; identification methods; cutting and polishing. There is a glossary and an index at the end.
