Cover illustration: the cover shows a specimen of the
silver mineral proustite.This is one of the oldest specimens in the National Museums
of Scotland mineral collection and although no data exists, the locality is thought
to be Germany. The scratches on the crystal faces indicate the low hardness of
this mineral. The photograph is published courtesy
