Exploration Scientifique de l'Algérie. Géologie et Minérologie: Géologie de l'Algérie.

Conceived and directed by the naturalist Bory de Saint Vincent, one of the first modern, systematic biological surveys of northern Africa was undertaken by the French government in the early 1840s and resulted in a multi-volume series of scientific publications under the title of the Exploration Scientifique de l'Algérie. SIL's holdings of the set were incomplete. This folio volume on the geology and mineralogy of Algeria includes five double-sized lithographed maps (two hand-colored).
