Abstract/Notes | In examining mineral grains either from sands or from crushed rocks it is frequently found that the electromagnet not only affords a means of separating certain minerals, but is also an aid to their identification. Yet an electromagnetic separation is rarely, if ever, complete, and minerals are frequently found to stray into fractions to which they do not rightly belong. As a result, a grain which, let us say, is found in the garnet fraction may be practically nonmagnetic, and if we assume that its magnetic properties are similar to those of garnet, a misidentification may be made. It seems desirable, therefore, that there should be some means of testing the magnetic properties of a single grain. |
