Picture on left represents ore deposits in the Iglesiente region of Sardinia, Italy; picture on right is Atlas of images of a regional DMO of the Curnamona Province, South Australia and part of NSW. Bottom chart is a correlation of selected deposits in the Asir Province, KSA, Arabia with USGS mineral deposits models, using LITHOTHEQUE sets
Custom-made LITHOTHEQUE assemblies to be used for self- and small group study and for comparison/identification of the various mineralization styles. Visual inspiration for exploration geologists.
