Very rare. In this classified catalog of the library of the Mineralogical Society of St. Petersburg, there are 481 Russian and foreign titles listed under mineralogy. Other subject categories include geology, chemistry, mathematics, etc. It is clearly a working library with virtually no books dated before the late-18th century. There are a total of 2685 books cataloged.
