s Mineralogie Siebenbürgens (1855). Fig. 39. A passage from János Keresztély Molnár'

s paper A természet három országinak rövéd ismeretetése [A brief description of the Three Kingdoms of Nature] (1783). Fig. 40. The description of native sulphur and some sulphides from Benkő's Magyar minerologia [Hungarian Mineralogy] (1786). Fig. 41. A part of the description of "mész festő érc" (~ manganese oxide minerals) from Zay's Magyar mineralógia [Hungarian Mineralogy] (1791). Fig. 42. Calcite crystals from Selmecbánya*, from the catalogue of the Raab collection, compiled by Born (1791). Fig. 43. Kohlrausch-type refractometer, modified by Krenner, used at the Department of Mineralogy and Geology of the Technical University of Budapest. Fig. 44. Teaching of mineralogy in secondary schools in the period 1849-1927. The vertical axis represents the pupil's age, expressed in years, the numbers below the columns indicate the years in which the educational system has been changed. Above the columns: G: secondary school (for boys), LG: secondary school for girls, RI: secondary school for modern languages and sciences. Within the columns is shown the subject mineralogy was taught together with: F: geology, K: petrography, T: natural history, V: chemistry. Numbers at the same place refer to the number of classes per week, with - if known - the approximate number of mineralogy classes in brackets. Comment: some mineralogy was taught in primary schools designed for both boys and girls, too. Fig. 45. Receipt of the Royal Hungarian Office for Selling Mineral Specimens at Selmecbánya* (1875). Fig. 46. József Krenner (Department of Mineralogy and Palaeontology, Hungarian National Museum) in the early 1910s at the Krepuska Quarry, Somoskőújfalu. Fig. 47. Microscopic image of the etched surface of a phlogopite crystal (New Jersey, USA) from Zoltán Toborffy's Csillámok [Micas] (1916). Field diameter 0.16 mm (left), 5.5 mm (right). Fig. 48. Shares of different earth science fields (a) in the oral presentations held at the scientific sessions of the Hungarian Geological Society 1850-1900 and (b) in the papers published in the periodicals of the society (1852-1900). Ásványtan = Mineralogy, Kőzettan = Petrology, Földtan = Geology, Őslénytan = Palaeontology, Vegyes = Of mixed character; based on the data of Koch (1902). Fig. 49.

th century. Fig. 50. Hugó Böckh, professor of the Academy of Mining and Forestry at Selmecbánya* (sitting row, 3
