Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. A landmark English translation of Lazarus Ercker's metallurgical treatise, expanded by Sir John Pettus. Uncommon. VG, 1st ed, 1683, 43 Sculptures. Two parts bound as 1, re-spined (to style), raised bands, blind tooling, gilt title to red morocco label, over contemporary calf boards, tips repaired. Internally, [12], [4] preface, [18], [9], [1] errata, 345 pp, [1]. [2], A2-Z, 81-133 pp, 43 (of 44) copper-engraved illustrations, lacks the portrait frontis, 173 ornate initial letters, bookplate to fpd (Arthur Dalrymple), occasional light spotting and edge browning, text block edges sprinkled red. (352*217 mm). (ESTC R5570. Ferguson I, pp.185-186; Wellcome II, p.527; Wing P1906; cf. Hoover 633). The first part is the first edition in English of Lazarus Ercker's 1574 treatise on ores. The second part is a dictionary of metallurgical terms compiled by Pettus. Having spent more than £20,000 on the royalist cause during the Civil War, Pettus appears to have been imprisoned for debt several times in later life, and it has been suggested that Fleta Minor was composed in Fleet Prison. Title continues: in two parts : the first contains assays of Lazarus Erckern, chief prover, or assay-master general of the empire of Germany, in V. books, originally written by him in the Teutonick language and now translated into English ; the second contains essays on metallick words, as a dictionary to many pleasing discourses, by Sir John Pettus . ; One of the earliest comprehensive manuals on metallurgy available in English, bridging alchemy and modern chemistry.

Auflage. - Der Berg- und Hüttenmann, Münzmeister Lazarus Ercker (vor 1530-1594) studierte ab 1547 in Wittenberg, später wohl auch in Italien, Naturwissenschaften und Mathematik. Praktischen Dienst tat er in der Münze seiner Heimatstadt, weiter als Wardein und Generalprobationsmeister in Dresden, um sich schliesslich 1558, empfohlen vom Kurfürsten August nach kurzem Zwischenaufenthalt in Tirol nach Goslar zu wenden. Hier betätigte er sich auf bergbaulichem und hüttentechnischem Gebiet, wurde braunschweigischer Münzmeister und überreichte als solcher 1563 dem späteren Herzog Julius ein umfangreiches Münzbuch. Um wieder in die alte Heimat zu gelangen, schlug er dem Kurfürsten August ein Probeschmelzen vor, das er 1566 in Dresden durchführte, aber durch die Machenschaften einiger Neider nicht abschliessen konnte; es beraubte ihn ausserdem der Gnade des Kurfürsten. Er ging 1568 nach Sankt Joachimsthal und sodann als Gegenprobierer nach Kuttenberg. Prager Stellen veranlassten ihn, nach der böhmischen Hauptstadt zu ziehen. Hier trat er in den Dienst Kaiser Maximilians II., der ihn als "Buchhalter" zur Verwaltung seiner Güter in der böhmischen Kanzlei beschäftigte. Während dieser Zeit entstand 1574 sein "Grosses Probierbuch". Dieses reich mit Holzschnitten ausgestattete Werk verschaffte bald 200 Jahre lang den Hüttenleuten Mitteleuropas die theoretischen Grundlagen. Kaiser Rudolf II., der Ercker sehr schätzte, führte ihn wieder seinem eigentlichen Berufe zu, ernannte ihn zum Obersten Bergmeister des Königreichs Böhmen und 1583 zum Münzmeister. Er hatte die böhmischen, mährischen und teilweise auch die ungarischen Bergwerke zu begutachten. Die meisten seiner darüber eingeschickten Berichte harren immer noch der wissenschaftlichen Erschliessung. Literatur: ADB VI, P. R. Beierlein, L. E., Bergmann, Hüttenmann u. Münzmeister im 16.

Condition: molto buono. 2 parti in un volume in-folio (315x195 mm),  ff. (7 titolo figurato inciso, firmato P. Kilian sculp., titolo a stampa, dedica e prefazione), pp. 332, (4). Segue la seconda parte, di Christianus Berwardus, con titolo proprio Interpres Phraseologiae Metallurgicae oder Erklarung der fürnembsten Terminorum und Redearten ; pp. (4), 47. Legatura coeva in pergamena rigida con unghie, titolo ms. al dorso. Quarta edizione, molto aumentata rispetto alle precedenti (la prima del 1574), di un importante trattato di mineralogia e metallurgia, il quale, con quelli di Agricola e Biringuccio, fu la base di tutti i seguenti studi in materia, "lavorando come ispettore capo delle miniere in Boemia sotto l'imperatore Rodolfo II, esaminò sistematicamente i metodi di analisi delle leghe e dei minerali, supervisionò le operazioni di fusione e scrisse con straordinaria chiarezza degli strumenti e delle operazioni necessarie? (Hoover Collection 283). Bellissimo e raro libro, stimato da Dibner come secondo solo all'opera dell'Agricola per la  ?beauty of the graphic treatment of the crafts? Le 41 stupende grandi xilografie, a mezza pagina o a pagina quasi intera, raffigurano strumenti e processi chimici, fornaci, miniere e scene di lavorazione dei minerali.  ?Considering the importance of Ercker's treatise it is remarkable how little is on record about him [?] His book was highly prized at the time, for it was a record of practical experience, and was not burdened with theories and hypotheses. The first edition was printed by Georg Schwartz at Prague, 1574, in folio. The work was enlarged and entitled Aula Subterranea, and published in 1672? (Ferguson).  Ha avuto diverse ristampe nel XVI e XVII secolo, anche se la presente edizione è la prima aumentata (con il lessico di Berward).  Esemplare bello e puro (abituale forte arrossatura della carta).

Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Complete with the engraved title page, which has been folded at the bottom to avoid trimming by the binder. Bound in 18th c. quarter vellum and marbled boards with some minor wear. The contents are in very fine condition. Small adhesion scar to title. Illustrated with 41 large woodcuts. "Ercker's treatise is the most authoritative contemporary work on 16th-century metallurgy and assaying. Ercker gave a systematic review of methods of testing alloys and minerals and of obtaining and refining various metals, as well as methods of manufacturing acids, salts and other chemical compounds, including saltpeter. He described the apparatus and laboratory equipment used in metallurgy and assaying and gave a detailed account of laboratory methods, all of which he himself had used." (Norman) "Erker's Beschreibung may be regarded as the first manual of analytical and metallurgical chemistry. The only one of Ercker's works to contain many drawings, it presents a systematic review of the methods of testing alloys and minerals of silver, gold, copper, antimony, mercury, bismuth, and lead; of obtaining and refining these metals, as well as of obtaining acids, salts, and other compounds. The last chapter is devoted to saltpeter. Ercker's account of the fact that zinc precipitates other metals from solutions is to be found only in the 1684 and later editions" (DSB). First printed in 1574, this is the second edition to include Christian Berward?s important lexicon of mining terms, ?Interpres Phraseologiae Metallurgicae?.

Hardcover. Condition: Good. Small folio (18 x 29.5 cm), Engraved frontispiece signed P. Kilian, (6) ff., 332 pp., (2) ff.; Appendix: (2) ff., 47 pp. Bound in contemporary stiff vellum, covers and spine ruled. Ownership inscription of frontispiece shaved in right and lower margin, as often; some waterstain on frontispiece, title and scattered leaves, strictly in margin; a single word scored on p. ?143? (i.e. 145r), and replaced in pen at an early date; a burn affecting partial letters on pp. 157/58; p. 45 (in appendix) torn in blank gutter and re-margined. Generally good. Scarce augmented edition of this illustrated technological classic, "second only to Agricola in the number of original contributions to the literature of mining and metallurgy and the beauty of the graphic treatment of the crafts" (Dibner 89 (1574)). It is testimony to the work's usefulness as a practical handbook that it continued to be used well into the 18th century. "[I]t presents a systematic review of the methods of testing alloys and minerals of silver, gold, copper, antimony, mercury, bismuth, and lead; of obtaining and refining these metals, as well as of obtaining acids, salts, and other compounds. The last chapter is devoted to saltpeter. Ercker described laboratory procedures and equipment, gave an account of preparing the cupel, of constructing furnaces, and of the assaying balance and the method of operating it" (DSB). "Ercker's treatise is the most authoritative contemporary work on 16th-century metallurgy and assaying. Ercker gave a systematic review of methods of testing alloys and minerals and of obtaining and refining various metals, as well as methods of manufacturing acids, salts and other chemical compounds, including saltpeter. He described the apparatus and laboratory equipment used in metallurgy and assaying and gave a detailed account of laboratory methods, all of which he himself had used" (Norman). First published in 1574 in Prague, this is a work of considerable rarity, which when it appears on the market, commands a daunting price. It had a number of 16th- and 17th-century reprints, though the present edition is the first augmented edition (augmented with Berward's lexicon). It has the same number of woodcuts as the 1598 edition (41). * Ferguson I.243-4; Hoover 283 misreporting prelims: 7 (including frontispiece) is correct.

The frontispiece/engraved half title trimmed with loss to upper and lower part of the plate. Closed tear to outer margin. Title-page closely trimmed with loss to first line of title.

(14), 220, 123, (5), 68 pp. + folded frontispiece/engraved half title. 41 woodcut in text depicting various processes of mining and metallurgy. Second edition, including Berward?s lexicon of mining terms, of Ercker?s seminal and beautifully illustrated work on mining and metallurgy ? of immense importance to and influence upon the subject throughout the 16th and 17th centuries. Its detailed approach has made it a key reference in the history of science and technology, and its practical focus contributed to the economic development of mining regions. "Ercker's treatise is the most authoritative contemporary work on 16th-century metallurgy and assaying. Ercker gave a systematic review of methods of testing alloys and minerals and of obtaining and refining various metals, as well as methods of manufacturing acids, salts and other chemical compounds, including saltpeter.

The last chapter is devoted to saltpeter. Ercker's account of the fact that zinc precipitates other metals from solutions is to be found only in the 1684 and later editions" (DSB). ?Considering the importance of Ercker?s tratise it is remarkable how little is on record about him. He was inspector-general of the mine of Hungary, Transylvania, and the Tyrol, which position he held under three consecutive emperors in the sixteenth century.
