Quibus officia, instrumenta, machinae, ac omnia denique ad metallicam spectantia, non modò luculentissimè describuntur, sed et per effigies, suis locis insertas, adiunctis latinis germanicisque appellationibus ita ob oculos ponuntur, ut clarius tradi non possint. Eiusdem de animantibus subterraneis liber, ab autore recognitus. Cum indicibus diuersis. Quicquid in opere tractatum est, pulchrè demonstrantibus, atq[ue] omnibus nunc iterum ad archetypum diligenter restitutis & castigatis / [Georg Agricola].
