Mineralogy of Franklin and Ogdensburg, Sussex County, New Jersey, USA - a Photographic Celebration
Fund-raising is also started for a color-plate book about the minerals of Franklin and Ogdensburg, New Jersey to commemorate the 50th Anniversary of the incorporation of the Franklin Mineral Museum. Van King and peter Chin are the editors.For over half a century, authors have contemplated this work, but have never succeeded. For much of its existence as a mineral collecting locality, it was the most species-rich locality in the world and it is still the second most prolific locality. Because of this area's species diversity, the book will be a daunting task. The book will feature images of every species found at the locality and the captions will discuss the characteristic associations from the various ones which are known. Fluorescent minerals will receive equal time. As many of the great specimens as possible will be included. This book will be published under the auspices of the Franklin Mineral Museum. Look for this one in 2014
