December, 2022

We have just returned from Wyoming where we spent a full 3 weeks working on our new facility in Wyoming.  Two wind storms extended our stay for several days, but we had a pleasant drive home just before the first real snow storm hit most of Wyoming.

I don't know when we will kick moving up there into high gear, but I hope it will be soon.

I am back to working on the website adding new inventory and deleting what has sold during the Fall season.  Thank you for all the orders arriving lately.


Please continue to submit your orders by e-mail.  You may call me if you have a question.  My office number is 337-478-0669.  

Please continue to send in your book, mineral, and fossil orders to me at: msbooks@booksgeology.com

Items I am looking for:

Igneous and Mineralogy books - I need to find and purchase another complete igneous and/or mineralogy library.

I am also in search of an entire ore deposit library.

Trilobite and/or Ammonite books are always welcome.

Select upscale minerals for purchase, trade, or consignment.
