The De Ortu et Causis Subterraneorum is considered the first work on physical geology, the De natura Eorum quae effluunt ex terra deals with subterranean waters and gases, the De Veteribus et Novis Metallis recounts various references to metals and mines in classical history, and there is a new edition of Bermannus" (Hoover, p. 4). * Adams A-339; Hoover 12 (cf. 14 fot Latin 1546); Grolier/Horblit 2a (1546 Latin); Stillwell, Science IV.563
