Peter Seroka has addressed the issue in several years of work and has written an up-to-date geological summary. He dedicated his work to the 15 th anniversary of Mineralienatlas.

Da verwundert es nicht, dass auch die für ein Land typischen Mineralien, Edelsteine, Fossilien oder geologische Themen eine Verwendung als Motiv für Briefmarken gefunden haben.
