Description
| Seaside Arc by Motohiko Shibayama Let's look for beautiful stones polished by waves! This is the third volume of the very popular guidebook for finding rocks, which introduces colorful minerals* and rocks found near the water in their original state for easy comparison. In mineral catalogs, we often see beautiful crystals that are well polished and have good coloring, but when we actually find them in riverside or seaside areas, most of them are stones or grains that we cannot recognize at a glance. You can try breaking up the parent rock, straining river gravel, or collecting them with a magnet... There is a knack to finding them. In this book, the author draws on his many years of experience looking for rocks and introduces 27 spots in Japan where you can easily find rocks, complete with maps. Most of the photographs of minerals and rocks are shown as they were when they were picked up, so that you can compare and refer to them when you are actually looking for rocks. Volume 3 is titled [Seashore Edition] and features seashore rock finds. In addition to an illustrated guide to 30 representative minerals and rocks found on beaches, this volume provides a thorough explanation of the basics of rock finding, including how sedimentary rocks are formed, a geology course on observing sea sand, which is attracting particular attention as a resource, and how to photograph rocks outdoors. Take this book with you and go find your own beautiful rocks in the river or ocean! [Main Contents] I.
