Arizona minerals book in prep



I see over on the Flagg Mineral & Foundation site that noted Arizona mineral collectors Le
s Presmyk and Tony Potucek are working on a new book that "will cover Arizona minerals from the perspective of collectors and present stories of collecting specimens by periods of time." They report that it will be available at the 2012 Tucson Gem & Mineral Show. The book is supposed to be published by natural history publisher, Lithographie.
