India - The secondary minerals from the Deccan Volcanic Province
The minerals from the basalt region of the Indian Deccan Trapps have become world famous in the last 40 years. In the past, the numerous finds have only been reported on occasionally, without any summarising presentation. In this monograph, all 65 mineral species have been described in detail for the first time on the basis of the latest scientific findings. In addition, the best-known localities are explained in detail.
Berthold Ottens, who has personally visited almost all the sites several times over the last 40 years, presents the minerals and sites as well as the geological conditions with extensive detailed information on around 350 pages. All explanations are illustrated with first-class photos, graphics and maps. This monograph represents a milestone in the documentation of secondary minerals from India.
352 pages, around 800 colour photos and illustrations. Large format 28.5 x 24.5 cm. Hardback. 2024.
