Scarce. The author, a professor of mineralogy at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, wrote this work to accompany his lectures on determinative mineralogy. The text covers the use of the blowpipe, simple tests for the elements, tabulated lists of reactions, and various information in a series of tables used in the determination of mineral species.
