A discovery of subterranean treasure: : containing useful explorations, concerning all manner of mines and minerals, from the gold to the coal; with plain directions and rules for the finding of them in all kingdoms and countries.

Whereunto is added a real experiment whereby every ignorant man may presently try whether any piece of gold that shall come to his hands be true or counterfeit ... Also a perfect way to try what colour any berry, leaf, flower, stalk, root, fruit, seed, bark or wood will give: with a perfect way to make colours that they shall not stain nor fade like ordinary colours.
