The depths of our planet and its surface are rich in a variety of stones and minerals. You are probably familiar with the names of many of them: diamond, ruby, amethyst, zircon, aquamarine, jasper, granite, onyx, amber... Our ancestors even created amazing legends about some stones. There are also some wonders among the minerals: the "fluffy" asbestos stone, from which you can sew a tablecloth. Or edible clay, which is considered a delicacy in different countries. And there are even alien stones that have flown to us from outer space. Nina Gustavovna Orlova's book "Precious Stones and Minerals" will tell you about the most curious of them.
