ANALYSIS OF MANY ROCKS

An important feature of the work done in the chemical laboratory of the United States Geological Survey is the analysis of rocks and minerals. These analyses are needed by the geologists in order to identify correctly the materials they collect and they have been made in greater numbers and more completely in the Surveys labo- ratory than in any other. Rock analysis or assays for the public can not, however, be made by the Geologi- ical Survey. In Bulletin 591 nearly 2,S00 of these official analyses have been brought together and so tabulat- ed and arranged by F. w. Clarke, chief chemist, as to make them available for the use of photographers and mineralogists generally. Over 700 of these analyses represent minerals con- prising more than 250 distinct spices, or about one-fourth of all the species known. The analyses of igneous rocks, 1 400 in number, are remarkably complete, and have done much to aid in classifying rocks and in showing the relative abundance of the various chemical clements in the crust of the earth. The discussion of these anal yses shows that several supposedly rare metals are widely diffused and really common.
