Extract

Metamoephism, considered in its widest generality, comprises all the modifications which mineral substances undergo. It is naturally divisible into parts, according as its objects bear upon minerals or upon rocks. It is the metamorphism of minerals which I propose studying in this notice, and I shall describe it under the name of pseudomorphism. But as certain associations of minerals present all the appearances of pseudomorphism, with which they have been often confounded, it is necessary, in the first place, to consider these specially.
