Description:
Book has no list of illustrations, probably because it would have pointed up errors. Two fold maps: Principal Kimberlite Occurrences, and Diamond Fields of Griqualand West. xxxv pp plus i page Errata. The compilation by the printer is very dodgy not only in this copy but all other copies I have seen, eg nominally 82 figures but Fig 78 is on the verso of Fig 82. As in other copies, Plate II & XXI are missing, but I have inserted a photocopy of Plate II and what must be XXI appears at p139 not only in this copy but in other copies as well. So in total XXXVI full page plates. 347pp includes 8 Tables, 4 Appendixes. PLUS EXTRA INDEX by Gerry Levin PLUS Appendix V, both photocopied from the Second Edition of 1971 taking it to 355pp incl appendix V. Illustrated with 82 figures, including b&w photos; many tables in text; VIII Tables and V Appendices at end. Covered in plastic.
