Extract

In my previous papers on this subject I have detailed various localities in which the mineral Diatomite has been found. Since the dates on which my papers were read various other localities have been discovered for the mineral, and I now beg to lay the details before the Society. The new samples are four in number, and are from—

  1. 1.—Golspie, Sutherlandshire.

  2. 2.—Loeh Osabhat, Tolsta, Lewes.

  3. 3.—Auchnerran, Aberdeenshire.

  4. 4.—Presswhin, Aberdeenshire.

A fifth sample of a nodular mass from the Diatomite of Loch Kinnord, Aberdeenshire, has been analysed, and the results are included in this paper.
