Description. 



Magura, Szlanicza, Arva, Hungary. 



Iron. One polished face. Rest of 

 surface covered with crust. [Smith Col- 

 lection.^ 



Three faces at right angles to each 

 other, etched, showing that the charac- 

 ter of the Widmanstattiau figures va- 

 ries greatly with the direction in which 

 the face is cut. In some cases the fig- 

 ures are very regular, and are largely 

 made up of a bright nickeliferous iron, 

 though in some cases the bright iron is 

 wholly absent and the figures are re- 

 placed by irregular cracks. [Smith

Three etched faces. Elsewhere sur- 

 face covered with crust. [Smith Col- 

 lection.']

 ing most perfect figures. Crust on
