VIII. On Haughtonite; a new Mica

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  14 March 2018

Abstract

Dr. Haughton, by his numerous analyses of the black mica of the Irish granites, may be said to have established the specific individuality of the lepidomelane of Hausmann.

That mineral his analyses showed to differ from Biotite in its great excess of ferric oxide and its comparative deficiency of ferrous oxide and magnesia.
