XVI. On the Chemical Composition of Epidote from Quenast
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 14 March 2018
Extract
This Epidote is found in the well-known quarries of quartziferous diorite at Quenast.
Without entering into any details regarding its crystalline form, it will suffice to mention that it here occurs in bacillary prisms, often elongated in the direction of the orthoaxis, and almost always macled parallel to the cleavage plane 
. It also occurs frequently in lamellar, fibrous and radiated masses of a pale green color, at times greyish or straw-colored ; these groups of crystals, which frequently occupy the geodes of the matrix, are capable of furnishing the mineral in a state of great purity, and well suited for chemical analysis.
