Abstract
IT was observed some time ago by M. Mallard (Bulletin de la Sociélé Minémlogique, 1882, p. 214) that certain crystals, such as boracite and potassium sulphate, have their crystallo-graphic character profoundly modified by exposure to a high temperature, and that in the case of potassium sulphate a number of hemitrope plates are thus formed.
