arseniferous;— sulphuret of antimony , or grey anti¬ 
mony (the most common ore of this metal), oc¬ 
curs compact, foliated, radiated, and plumose: 
the more remarkable among these are the speci¬ 
mens of crystallized radiated antimony in fine 
groups, especially from Transylvania; radiated 
grey antimony with barytes, realgar, &c.; the 
plumose grey antimony, some varieties of which, 
appearing like delicate wool or down, display a 
fine iridescent blue, yellow and red tarnish ; red 
antimony , mostly in fine capillary crystals, from 
Braunsdorf in Saxony, and a variety of the same, 
called tinder ore , from the Hartz ;— white anti - 
mony , an oxide, formerly considered as a muriate, 
of this metal, crystallized, on galena, &c.—spe¬ 
cimens of antimonial ochre on native and grey an¬ 
timony, &c. 
Case 47, and paht of 48, contain the ores of 
cobalt and arsenic. The crystals of glantz-cohali , 
which has been frequently confounded with white 
cobalt, are mostly from Sweden;—a suite of 
specimens of white cohalt , exhibiting the princi¬ 
pal modifications of crystallized and irregular 
shapes;— grey cohalt , principally from Wittichen 
in Wurtemberg ;—some specimens of oxides of 
this metal, viz . the black and the brown or yel¬ 
low cohalt ochre , the latter of which contains 
iron ;—various specimens of the red cohalt ore , or 
arseniate, comprising the earthy (cobalt crust) and 
the radiated (cohalt bloom ) varieties, from Saal- 
feld.
