AMIANTHUS. 



Silky fibrous varieties of Hornblende, Pyroxene, Picrosmene and 

 Nemolite. q. v. 



AMPHIBOLE. (See Hornblende.) 

 AMPHIGE'NE. (See Leucite.) 

 AMPHODELLITE. 



Crystalline ; the form of the crystals said to resemble those of 

 Feldspar. Cleaves in two directions, whose mutual inclina- 

 tion is 94 9'. 



Fracture resembles that of Scapolite. Color reddish. 

 Hardness = 4-5. Sp. gr. = 2-793.

Silica 45-SO ^ 



Alumina 3545 



Lime 1015 



Magnesia 5-05 



Protoxide of iron . 1-70 



Moisture and loss . . . 1'85 



2. It is found in the lime quarries of Lozo in Finland. 



3. There does not appear to be any sufficient reason why Amphodcl- 

 lite should not be included under Scapolite, except the indications of 

 crystalline form, which however do not appear to have received much 

 attention.
