(Curve b, fig. 63.) Cleavage pieces pasted upon cardboard to form an area sufficiently large for reflection. In comparison with selenite, it will be noticed that the large maximum of the latter is here found at ju, followed by a small band at p. It seems a little surprising that the latter band should be so small if it is a harmonic of the large band (of CaSO4) at 4-55 /*• DIASPORA AIO(OH). (Cleavage piece parallel to b. Curve a, fig. 64.) This is the most remarkable mineral yet examined. For the region up to 8 p. it has no marked absorption bands. Beyond this point condi- tions are entirely reversed. There is a broad reflection band extending.
