第一部矿物学专著——《论化石的性质》该书由16世纪德意志采矿和冶金学者、作家阿格里科拉(1494～1555年)撰写。该书于公元1546年出版,成为矿物学的开山之作,作者因此而被誉为“矿物学之父”。作者在书中认为:矿物体或由同种物质的粒子凝固而成,或由不同物质组成。前者不是混合物,后者称为混合物。前者又分成简单矿物和复合矿物,简单矿物有四类,即土、凝固汁液、石和金属,而复合矿物有许多种。该书共详细描迹了约80种不同的矿物,其中至少有20种为新见。书中所列各种矿物的特征至今仍可用于初步分类。
First Monograph on Mineralogy - “On the Nature of Fossils” This book was written by Agrigento, a 16th-century German mining and metallurgy writer and author (1494-1555). The book was published in 1546 as a pioneer in mineralogy and the author was therefore hailed as “the father of mineralogy.” The author thinks in the book: The mineral body or from the same species of particles solidified, or made of different substances. The former is not a mixture, the latter is called a mixture. The former is divided into simple minerals and complex minerals, there are four types of simple minerals, namely soil, solidified juice, stone and metal, and there are many kinds of composite minerals. The book traces in detail about 80 different minerals, of which at least 20 are new. The characteristics of the various minerals listed in the book are still available for preliminary classification.
