[[underlined]] URUGUAY [[/underlined]]

1) A sistematic collection of rocks and ores of the Republic of Uruguay. This collection contains chiefly samples of crystalline schists, gneiss, granite, syenite, gabbro, diorite, diabase, quartz-porphyry, basalt, andesite, liparite and associated tuffs. Special attention is called to the chalcs occurring in the ancient schists and the ore-deposits, as for instance: gold, copper, lead, iron etc.  A very remarkable occurrence is represented by samples of corundum. The phenomena of contact and regional metamorfism are well displayed. The final numbers of this collection consist of the sedimentary rocks lying upon the ancient cristalline platform.

A very remarkable and interesting collection of handsome and typical specimens of a regular size.

195 especimens of size 9 x 12 cm. ....... for $ oro 170

This collection has been described geologically by Professor K. Walther of Montevideo and petrographically by Professor E. Weinschenk of Munich in a German geological review. For informations please apply to Professor Weinschenck in Munich.

These rocks illustrate in an excellent manner the regional as well as contact metamorfism, having been described in the Anales del Ministerio de Agricultura de la República Argentina, Sección Geología, Boletín N. 7, Serie B, Geología: Las cales cristalino-granulosas de las Sierras de Córdoba y sus fenómenos de contacto. Por el Dr. Roberto Beder, 1913. The chief work on these deposits is now prepared by Dr. Beder and will soon be ready for publication. Besides, these deposits have been described in 1905 in the same Anales, Sección Geología, Tomo I, N. 2, : Constitución geológica, productos minerales de aplicación de la Sierra de Códoba. Por el Dr. Guillermo Bodenbender. 

Transcription Notes:
jeni92127 reviewed - transcriber error: "drystalls" should be "crystalls" - For the last 3 entries on the specimen list, the first "ditto for cm. for $ oro" should be replaced by "specimens of size" - There should be a tiny superscript "o" after "N." entries to represent "numero". - Translation of the Spanish title of the first mention of Annals: Annals of Argentina's Ministry of Culture, Geological Section, Bulletin Number 7, Series B, Geology: The crystalline-granulated crystals of the Cordoba Mountain Ranges and their contact phenomena. By Dr. Roberto Beder, 1913 - Translation of the Spanish title of the second mention of same Annals: Annals, Geological Section, Volume I, Number 2: Geological Constitution, the application of mineral products from the Cordoba Mountain Range by Dr. Guillermo Bodenbender.
