Alexandra Ermicheva: Chevostik. Stones, minerals and metals

What is hidden in the bowels of the Earth? Where was the largest diamond found? Which rock is the oldest? What was oil used for in ancient Babylon? Is it possible to get "gold rush"? To answer these questions, Chevostik and Uncle Kuzya go to the mineral deposits.

In the new encyclopedia with their favorite hero Chevostik, children will get acquainted with ancient metallurgists, famous geologists and jewelers, see underwater volcanoes, a diamond quarry and a salt lake, learn what the famous monuments are made of - the mausoleum near the walls of the Moscow Kremlin and the Alexandria Column in St. Petersburg. And then, under the supervision of adults, they will be able to conduct several experiments in the kitchen themselves: for example, grow a crystal or arrange a volcanic eruption!
