Abstract

GENsneL Cr-essrrcanoN oF THE Ar"tprnnorrsIt is proposed that the classification of the amphiboles should be largely based on crystal chemistry, as the optical and other physical determinative properties such as X-ray powder diffraction cannot differentiate unambiguously between different members of the group.Of course the traditional and important distinction between orthorhombic and monoclinic members has been retained.When it is necessary to distinguish different polytypes or polymorphs further (e.9., with cummingtonite) this may be

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
