The phrase in upper margin of the maps, " Collect Acad. Part. Fr. Tom. XIII, Pl. " mark this as the second state; the map is otherwise the same as the first state. [This] map first appeared with Guettard's first article on the distribution of metals and minerals and [is] regarded as [one of] the first geological maps. Buache drafted three more mineralogical maps for Guettard all dated 1752: Switzerland; Middle East; Northeastern North America. |
