Australian Journal Of Mineralogy

The latest issue of this great journal is out and has articles describing some new minerals: Cloncurryite, Gillardite and Parwanite, plus several other interesting articles. We can show you copies on request and provide subscription forms ($28/yr). Other upcoming issues are Gold (November 2008?), a second Tasmania issue and possibly Gem minerals.

The journal is a must-have for all Australian mineral collectors and mineralogists. It is of a similar standard to the Mineralogical Record, but the focus is on articles on Australian minerals and localities.

Any contributions, advertising, and suggestions can be directed through the editor, Dermot Henry (dhenry@museum.vic.gov.au ).

The first Tasmanian issue (Dundas) has now been printed and looks great; we have some spare copies for sale locally. The second issue is now planned for November 2009. Good photos are still most welcome.

Several other back issues of are available from the Mineral society (via Ralph. Email: rsbottrill@internode.on.net .
