Posted: Oct 01, 2011 04:30 Post subject: MINERALS – The Collectors Newspaper |
|
|
Thanks to Jordi I am happy to start on FMF topic about Minerals newspaper.
Minerals newspaper is given for free on the major shows. Format of the journal is A3, so twice bigger than majority of mineralogical journals. Whole newspaper is full color and printed on good quality paper. Number of page is not fix, usually issues have 20-24 pages.
We started journal in 2011 and up to day 2 issues were published, third one is on the way – it will be given at Munich show. Our plan for future is to publish 2 issues per year.
Goal of the newspaper is to show not only "ready" minerals but also minerals in situ – in veins, pockets etc. We also try to publish articles about important "new finds". In each issue we publish interview with interesting collector – as for now it was Jeff Scovil and Jolyon Ralph. From the third issue we start series of articles presenting mineralogical journals – at the end we want to cover all them.
Below you can find links to issues already published:
Issue #1: https://www.mindat.org/mindat_books.php?id=67&action=download
Issue #2: https://www.mindat.org/mindat_books.php?id=82&action=download
If you have any comments or ideas please post them at this topic.
Best regards

Hi Tomek and all,
just wanted to note that i picked up the 2 published issues already (in hardcopy - better than the downloaded ones of course ;-) ) and i have to congratulate you on this newspaper - high quality printing, excellent photographs and good stories. Pick up your copies in Munich - it is very rewarding,
cheers

Awesome! Simply awesome. _________________ The search is what anyone would undertake if he were not sunk in the everydayness of his own life. To be aware of the possibility of the search is to be onto something. Not to be onto something is to be in despair.
