Nat. Hist. 
specimens of common tin stone are, the regular and 
macled crystals, the pebble- like and granular tin stone 
(shoadtin, stream tin, grain tin, &c.), and the greyish 
white crystals, resembling scheel ore, or tungstate 
of lime; the tin stone from Finbo, in Sweden, 
which contains oxide of tantalum.—The ores of 
tungsten, which generally accompany those of tin, 
are— wolfram (scheelin ferrugineux Haity), cry¬ 
stallized and massive, from Bohemia, &c. and the 
tungstate of lime, scheel ore (scheelin calcaire 
Hauy), among the crystallized specimens of which 
is the primitive acute octohedron from Allemont 
in Dauphine.—In this case are also placed the-spe¬ 
cimens of molybdena, or sulphuret of molybdenum, 
which should not be confounded with graphite; 
the yellow powder on feldspar, from Westmania in 
Sweden, is oxide of molybdenum. 
(Case 46.) Part of this case is occupied by the 
ores of titanium, viz. the oxides, called titanite, 
brown-ore, brunon, (sph&ne, and titane siliceo-cal- 
caire Hauy,) among the varieties of which is that 
in large flat octohedral crystals from Norway, with 
epidote, &c. also the variety called, by Saussure, 
rayonnante en gouttikre, from St. Gothard, on feld¬ 
spar, with chlorite, &c.— Titan-shorl, also called 
rutile; massive, crystallized, and fibrous, to which 
latter belongs the variety with golden tarnish, from 
Moutier, near the Montblanc; the acicular crystals 
of rutile in rock crystal, &c.; th v ferriferous ox -
