Book Description

July 17, 2007

This guidebook is for anyone who has walked along a Lake Superior beach, picked up a stone, and wondered, “What is this?” Bruce Mueller and Kevin Gauthier researched Lake Superior’s entire shoreline to create this thorough and accessible volume. With great detail and helpful illustrations, they describe the kind of rocks you’ll find—including copper, iron, and gold—provide hints for telling the stones apart, and show you the best places to find each stone. Also included are suggestions for handling the stones, including the best polishing methods, and fascinating information on the rocks’ origins.

A section of color photographs is included to help with identification.

5.0 out of 5 stars Nice Tips for Locating Cool Rocks in the UP, December 7, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Lake Superior Rock Picker's Guide (Paperback)
First trip to the UP after living in Michigan for 25 years! This book was a great guide for a weekend rock collector. It provides general locations and a nice picture section of typical rock finds. Great for the price.

4.0 out of 5 stars Stone collecting, March 27, 2008
This review is from: Lake Superior Rock Picker's Guide (Paperback)
Neat little book. Covers all the Lake Superior shoreline both in the States as well as Canada. Very well done geology history and discriptions of the stones themselves. If you collect stones, or have wandered the shores of Superior you will love to have this little book.
