Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Popular Guide to Minerals: With Chapters on the Bement Collection of Minerals in the American Museum of Natural History, and the Development of Mineralogy; For Use of Visitors to Public Cabinets of Minerals and for Elementary Teaching in Mineralogy Mineralogy discusses minerals from three points of view: first, their form, which has produced the science of Crystallography second, their composition and qualities, which has produced the science of Determinative Mineralogy; and third, their occur rence and appearance, which has produced the science of De scriptive Mineralogy. Crystallography is the study of crystals. The greater number of minerals in their molecular constitution are con trolled by certain geometrical tendencies which bring them into a certain and limited number of forms, forms bounded by planes and limited by edges, which forms preserve for each mineral an identity of character, and which forms are known as crystals. With these crystalline forms are associated certain optical qualities, as double refraction, dichroism, asterism, etc., which more properly are em braced under Determinative Mineralogy.
