Very scarce. Descriptive catalog of the economic minerals contained in the collection of the Theresian Academy in Vienna. This large collection incorporated specimens obtained from Christian Ludwig Steiglitz in the early 1770's, and some of them are probably described in this catalog. It is not clear as to what happened to the collection after this catalog appeared.
