Les anciennes mines de Padern-Montgaillard (Aude): deologie, histoire et mineralogie

["The Ancient Mines of Padern-Montgaillard (Aude): Geology, History and Mineralogy"] by M. Deliens, C. Berbain and G. Favreau. Published (1993) by the Association francaise de micromineralogie, Paris. Softcover, 84 pp., illustrated in color; price: FF 100.

Lead, copper and barite have been mined in the Padern-Montgaillard area of the Departement of Aude, southeast France, since the Middle Ages. Examples of some of the minerals found in the area are shown as micromounts in color, and details of the geology of the area and its associated mineralization are given, together with a useful bibliography. A guide to this area is particularly welcome, and the standard of production is excellent; the price is very reasonable for today.
