Item description from seller

Adelaide, Rigby, 1971. Octavo, [viii], 172 pages plus 12 pages of plates (from photographs). Papered boards; slight crease to the leading edge of the front free endpaper and the first four leaves; an excellent copy with the dustwrapper lightly sunned about the spine. 'Uranium hit the news in a big way in August 1970, when the huge deposit of uranium ore found by a woman prospector in the Northern Territory of Australia was valued at many milions of dollars. The hope of making such a lucky strike was what kept Ross Annabell in the Northern Territory after he was fired from his job as "Editor, chief sub-editor, copy-holder, reader and chief whipping-boy of the Northern Territory News"' (from the blurb).
