VI.—The Development of Uralite and other Secondary Amphiboles: a brief History of Research in that subject

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  01 May 2009

Extract

In the year 1831 the famous mineralogist and chemist, Gustav Rose, described a mineral which he had observed in his travels in the Urals the previous year. He pointed out that he had found in the greenstones of the Urals crystals with the cleavages and the prism angle of hornblende, but with the external form of augite. The porphyritic crystals of these greenstones are sometimes hornblende, sometimes augite.
