Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is a unique mineralogical study, first published in 1866, which presents tabular systems to assist in identifying over 140 minerals. The author divided minerals into three tabular systems, based on their luster: metallic, non-metallic, and colorless streak. These three systems are then further divided into single tables. For example, the first system containing minerals with metallic luster is divided into five tables based on hardness, starting with the softest. The author included chemical tests and a section on blowpipe reactions to help with identification, as well as a formula for each mineral, which was considered bold for the time and provided a new way of looking at mineral composition. This book is a valuable tool for students and professionals alike, providing a thorough system for identifying minerals in the field or laboratory. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
