Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Journal of Geology, 1900, Vol. 8 The introduction of the petrographical microscope and its accessories, bringing as it did quick and delicate methods for determining the mineral constitution of a rock, naturally enough drew away the attention of petrographers from the Slower and less brilliant methods of chemical analysis, which up to that time had been almost the only ones in use. Moreover most of the analyses of the period were, as we now know, inaccurate and failed to show the real chemical differences between individual rocks. The multiplication of the number of analyses and the improvements in the methods of rock analysis which have been made during the last decade, particularly by Hillebrand, have disclosed important differences among rocks formerly classed together, and thus necessitated a considerable elaboration of the systems of classification.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Journal of Geology, 1900, Vol. 8: A Semi-Quarterly Magazine of Geology and Related Sciences The introduction of the petrographical microscope and its accessories, bringing as it did quick and delicate methods for determining the mineral constitution of a rock, naturally enough drew away the attention of petrographers from the slower and less brilliant methods of chemical analysis, which up to that time had been almost the only ones in use. Moreover most of the analyses of the period were, as we now know, inaccurate and failed to show the real chemical differences between individual rocks. The multiplication of the number of analyses and the improvements in the methods of rock analysis which have been made during the last decade, particularly by Hillebrand, have disclosed important differences among rocks formerly classed together, and thus necessitated a considerable elaboration of the systems of classification. With this elaboration rock names have been introduced into the science with a rapidity which is little Short of bewildering. The older petrological nomenclature was largely binomial or polynomial (i. E., mica-syenite, quartz-mica-diorite) though the recent names seem planned for a monomial nomenclature (i. E., ciminite). It is therefore not strange that misunderstanding has arisen in some quarters, where it is not realized that the new names proposed are for the most part specific and varietal in their nature and in no way to be correlated with the great family names such as granite or gabbro, and hence a protest has been made against what seems a needless overburdening of the science with names. Without entering upon this question here it may, I think, be stated with all assurance that some reforms are imperatively demanded before the worker will be fully equipped to discover the relationships among rocks because of the incubus of unclassified facts by which the science is now encumbered. Some of the particular reforms which to me seem desirable and practicable will be briefly described. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Journal of Geology, Vol. 8: July August, 1900 It appears then that in general the diagram of a rock-series will consist of curved lines to indicate the variations in percent age amount of the several bases'. Of these curves we may dis distinguish two kinds: (a) When the constituent in question first increases to a maximum and then decreases, or increases first more rapidly and then less rapidly, or decreases first less rapidly and then more rapidly, the curve will be Eonvex upward; (e) When it decreases to a minimum and then increases, or decreases first more rapidly and then less rapidly, or increases first less rapidly and then more rapidly, the curve will be concave upward. This. Classification is not an exhaustive one, for there may be curves which are in ected, being convex in one part and concave in another, but it will be sufficient to consider the simpler cases. Since the sum of the ordinates for all the bases falls off steadily in linear fashion, its curve of variation 'being the straight line yx, it follows that in any series, other than an ideal linear one, some of the bases must give convex and others concave curves.
