It contains but one flaw, which is invisible when the brooch is HISTORY OF MOUNT MICA. 27 held in ordinary positions. No. 6 is a section of a prism about i inch in length by 2 inches in diameter, of a pale pink color, except a thin coating, which is green. This crystal is an exception to the others here enumerated as regards its transparency, free- dom from flaws, and beauty of colors, and is noticed only on account of its magnitude. From one of the fragments he had cut a remarkable gem ^ of an... inch in length, i3-2oths of an inch in breadth, and 4-ioths of an inch in thickness. When viewed by transmitted light it reminds one of one of the finest Syrian garnets ; but seen by reflected Hght, it gives much of the crimson red peculiar to the oriental ruby. Its freedom from cracks, united to its trans- parency, luster and beauty of color, have caused it to be much admired. He also mentions several prisms precisely resembling the tourmalines from Brazil, and also some indicolites of deep blue color, from one of which he had cut two tables of an inch by J^ inch.
