That this is generally recognized is shown by the increasing prominence given to chemical analyses in recent petrological and petrographical papers, as well as in publica tions Of an economic character. It is also shown by the attention given to this study by official organizations, and by the growing number of those who make, or who desire to make, analyses of rocks.
