Should the deposits of bauxite give out, the manu- facturers of aluminum would probably fall back on cryolite. At Tvigtuk, on the west coast of Greenland, it exists, as a very heavy vein, in gneiss. It is semi- transparent, and snow-white. Impurities may stain it yellow or red or even black. Its specific gravity is 2. 95, and its hardness 2. 5 to 3. It is fusible in the flame of a candle, and yields hydrofluoric acid if treated with sulphuric acid. It is still used for making soda and aluminum
...salts, and an imitation porcelain. It is also in general use as a flux.
Amber. This is a fossil resin, or gum, and may often be found in lignite beds. Recent discoveries have been made on the coast of British Columbia that are ex- pected to supply the world. All pipe-smokers know it.
