Blowpipe
(3) on charcoal. --
(4) in forceps. As specular iron.
(5) in borax. As specular iron.
(6) in mic. salt. As in borax.
(7) with carb. soda. --
(8) Special reactions. --

Mineral. Franklinite
Formula. ([.Fe][.Zn][.Mn]) ([...Fe=][...Mn=]).
Behavior
(1) in glass-bulb. --
(2) in open tube. --
(3) on charcoal. Forms a white incrustation on the charcoal,
which moistened with cobalt solution assumes a
green color.
(4) in forceps. V. In the blue flame fuses on edges and and
becomes magnetic.
(5) in borax. Gives the iron and manganese reaction.
(6) in mic. salt. As in borax.
(7) with carb. soda. Affords a considerable white incrustation of
ZnO.
(8) Special reactions. Gives a strong manganese reaction with nitre and
carbonate of soda.

Mineral. Ilmenite
Formula. [...Ti=] and [...Fe=].
Behavior
(1) in glass-bulb. --
(2) in open tube. --
(3) on charcoal. --
(4) in forceps. V. In reducing flame fuses on edges and becomes
magnetic.
(5) in borax. Gives the iron reaction.
(6) in mic. salt. In oxidizing flame exhibits the iron reaction.
In reducing flame assumes a deep brownish red
color.
(7) with carb. soda. --
(8) Special reactions. --

Mineral. Chromic iron
Formula. [.Fe][...Cr=].
Behavior
(1) in glass-bulb. --
(2) in open tube. --
(3) on charcoal. --
(4) in forceps. As the preceding.
(5) in borax. Dissolves slowly and gives the chromium
reaction.
(6) in mic. salt. As in borax.
(7) with carb. soda. On platinum foil with nitre and carbonate of
soda affords a yellow mass of chromate of
potassa.
(8) Special reactions. --

Mineral. Lievrite
Formula. 3([.Fe][.Ca])^{3}[...Si] + 2[...Fe=][...Si].
Behavior
(1) in glass-bulb. Occasionally gives off some water and turns
black.
(2) in open tube. --
(3) on charcoal. Fuses to a black globule, which in the reducing
flame becomes magnetic.
(4) in forceps. I. In reducing flame is magnetic.
(5) in borax. Gives the iron reaction.
(6) in mic. salt. Gives the iron and silica reactions.
(7) with carb. soda. Fuses to a black opaque bead.
