. Bulletin of the Department of Geology. Geology. Eakle.] Colemanite from Southern California. 43 It' with a radius of h = 1 = c-axis, a circle is described, then this circle would represent in ground plan a sphere of projection. The plane of projection would be tangent to this sphere at the end of the c-axis, 8 would be the pole of the projection, and 8Y the first meridian. Any faee pq would have the point of inter- section of its normal with this plane, located by the angle which it makes with the first meridian 8Y, and the distance from the pole df = tg p. (Figure 1). The face pq is further defined by the two rectangular coordinates % y , whose values deduced from the right triangles are x — sin 4> tg p y' = cos 4> tg p. By means of the measured y angles and p, all forms can be plotted on cross section paper, and the co- ordinates x' y' give graph- ically the symbols for any form in terms of the ./ y/ of the unit form pq. In monoclinic crystals the projection of the base-normal lies in front of the pole at a dis- tance e = tg p, and the distances p'0 and q'0 are the coordinates for the unit pyramid pq reckoned from the base; therefore for any values of pq, / = pp'0 + (/ and y' = qq'0. Determination of /, p-, and P.—An average of twenty read- ings on the basal pinacoid gave p = 20°7, with = 90°; e' = tg p = This value of e/ was also obtained from the readings of the clinodomes. For these forms x = e', and an average of forty-four values of / for the domes 01 and 02 gave ,/ = ; thus agreeing with the direct measurements. Also ,/ = Cot p. = 6!)° 53' and j8 = 180° — /* = 110° 7'. Determination of //,, and tg p y = cos tg p the coordinates x' y' were calculated for all the best faces. For.
