Summary The orientation of the boundaries of out-of-step domains in ‘transitional’ anorthite has been deduced from the direction of elongation of the diffuse X-ray reflections h + h + l = 2 n + 1 in selected precession photographs. The reflections are elongated normal to which is in the zone and contains the body-centring vector (a+b−c)/2. The structure is presumed to be perfect parallel to . Atoms in essentially identical, primitive anorthite-like domains are related across the out-of-step domain boundaries by body-centring vectors. Increasing diffuseness of the h + k + l = 2 n + 1 reflections indicates progressively smaller domains (more frequent domain boundaries), and when thesereflections disappear, the structure has become body-centred on the average.

Summary Curves relating spacing, Or content, and structural state of alkali feldspars are reviewed. Discrepancies between the compositions of heated natural perthitic alkali feldspars determined by this method and by chemical analysis are discussed and shown to be largely consistent with incomplete homogenization.

Summary Segregations of compact chlorite from ultramafic belts in New South Wales have been examined using chemical, X-ray, differential thermal, and electronprobe techniques. The chlorites vary from pennine to sheridanite. Some segregations occupy the central zone in metasomatic sequences of altered chromite, chlorite, and lizardite; but others may have formed at junctions of serpentinite and rodingite.

Summary The subaerial decomposition of struvite has been investigated at room temperature (21±2° C), from which it has been concluded that the decomposition product is newberyite. X-ray power patterns of newberyite, both from a diffractometer and Debye-Scherrer cameras, are given. Comparison of these patterns with other newberyite patterns suggest that the camera pattern is more reproducible; this may be due to grain orientation in the diffraetometer mounts.

Summary Cell dimensions obtained from X-ray powder photographs of twenty-four natural olivines and one synthetic forsterite have been related to the cation contents by a new statistical procedure developed by M. H. Hey. Unlike conventional statistical analysis, which assumes error only in one parameter, this procedure simultaneously considers the estimated errors in all variables. Linear terms in Ca, Mn, Mg (or Fe(≡ 1-Mg-Ca-Mn)) satisfactorily account for the cell dimensions, and there was no need to invoke a term in Mg 2 . Since there are three cell dimensions and three chemical unknowns, it is theoretically possible to estimate the major cations in olivine just from the cell dimensions. However, the coefficients for Mn and Fe are so similar and the ranges of Ca and Mn are so small that the technique would be impractical. Data for ideal (Mg,Fe) olivines were estimated by adjusting the cell dimensions by linear extrapolation from the cell dimensions of tephroite and monticellite. A simple chemical term was sufficient to account for each cell dimension. The linear relation between cell volume and Mg is consistent with the complete disorder of Mg and Fe revealed by parallel single-crystal X-ray studies. The cell dimensions of a synthetic fayalite deviate significantly from those of natural fayalites after correction for the effects of Ca and Mn substitution in the latter: some structural or chemical difference, probably involving ferric iron, is indicated. No superstructure lines have been found, in contradiction to Eliséev's data.
