Riassunto

Excerpt from An Essay on Mineralogical Classification and Nomenclature: With Tables of the Orders and Species of Minerals

IT is not the design of this essay to propose a new system of mineralogical classification. The more limited object of the following pages is to compare the groups of minerals which are associated by outward properties, with a view to discover what are the resemblances and differences of their chemical constitution. This seems to be the method by which we may best hope to approach the most natural and true arrangement of minerals, and to obtain some insight into the nature of the laws by which the chemical composition determines the external character.
