But if not, if you're interested, I can send you a pdf copy of the pages where Lacroix discusses different varieties of chalcedony found in Madagascar. (p.216-218)

However, you will see when reading his text that he doesn't discuss the socalled "ocean jasper" or "orbicular jasper". He only mentions briefly, in a short sentence, that different varieties of chalcedony (which originates from volcanique rocks of Tertiarian age) are found abundantly in the Analalava district, especially around Marovato near Antonibe. Marovato [www.mindat.org] is the famous "orbicular jasper" locality but it was found and made famous much later, after he had written his book.

At Marovato the "Ocean jasper" does not occurs as "geodes" or amygdale fillings in a volcanique rock. It occurs as quite large boulders consisting of many horizontal, lenticular, discordant zones and layers which as been placed and formed cause to hydrothermal alteration of the Tertiary lava.
The material seen on the market has been mined from these boulders.
It consist mainly of chalcedony with finegrained green celadonite and some brownish Fe-Mn hydroxydes. And are very nice!

The best written article of the locality that i know about is Lieber, W. (2003): Sphärolithischer Chalcedon von Madagaskar.

the complete 'Hintze-Handbook' consists of 11 volumes plus an additionl complete register volume.
There are
1. Band 1. Teil (volume 1 part 1) page1-1208
1. Band 2. Teil (volume 1 part 2) page 1209-2674
1. Band 3. Abteilung 1. Hälfte (volume 1 part 3 first half) page 2675-3656
1. Band 3. Abteilung 2. Hälfte (volume 1 part 3 second half) page 3557-4565
1. Band 4. Abteilung 1. Hälfte (volume 1 part 4 first half) page 1- 720
1. Band 4. Abteilung 2. Hälfte (volume 1 part 4 second half) page 721-1454
2. Band (volume 2) page 1-1842
Ergänzungsband (additional volume) page 1-760
Ergänzungsband II (additional volume II) page 1-480
Ergänzungsband IIa (additional volume IIa) page 481-958
Ergänzungsband III (additional volume III) page 1-684
Gesamtregister (complete register) page 1-145

You see, this are more than 10.000 pages and it takes more than 60 cm in my bookshelf.
I don't think there exists a complete pdf version of that handbook.

good luck

Mindat Books is great, and it would be a great convenience, if such a thing were practical, to get all volumes available there. Or perhaps all of those old volumes, with their parts, on a DVD or CD disk, and sold for something, such as is the great Atlas der Krystallformen disk which is done so well and is a great research bargain.]]> Dana Morong Literature Sat, 16 Mar 2013 17:28:59 +0000 http://www.mindat.org/forum.php?read,99,287725,287906#msg-287906 http://www.mindat.org/forum.php?read,99,287725,287906#msg-287906

Thanks for the ref. Uwe.
The book itself is should also be considered.
It's hardbound.

It is not a mineralogical text but is still a worthwhile addition to any library and not expensive, even allowing for postage. While the on-line version is great I always prefer the touchy feely version of any book.

Cheers
