Foliation :: Foliation (n.) The property, possessed by some crystalline rocks, of dividing into plates or slabs, which is due to the cleavage structure of one of the constituents, as mica or hornblende. It may sometimes include slaty structure or cleavage, though the latter is usually independent of any mineral constituent, and transverse to the bedding, it having been produced by pressure..

Blend :: Blend (v. i.) To mingle; to mix; to unite intimately; to pass or shade insensibly into each other, as colors..

Commix :: Commix (v. t. & i.) To mix or mingle together; to blend.

Hornblendic :: Hornblendic (a.) Composed largely of hornblende; resembling or relating to hornblende.

Marbled :: Marbled (a.) Varied with irregular markings, or witch a confused blending of irregular spots and streaks..

Anthophyllite :: Anthophyllite (n.) A mineral of the hornblende group, of a yellowish gray or clove brown color..

Blendous :: Blendous (a.) Pertaining to, consisting of, or containing, blende..

Pitchblende :: Pitchblende (n.) A pitch-black mineral consisting chiefly of the oxide of uranium; uraninite. See Uraninite.

Stream :: Stream (n.) A current of water or other fluid; a liquid flowing continuously in a line or course, either on the earth, as a river, brook, etc., or from a vessel, reservoir, or fountain; specifically, any course of running water; as, many streams are blended in the Mississippi; gas and steam came from the earth in streams; a stream of molten lead from a furnace; a stream of lava from a volcano..

Hornblende :: Hornblende (n.) The common black, or dark green or brown, variety of amphibole. (See Amphibole.) It belongs to the aluminous division of the species, and is also characterized by its containing considerable iron. Also used as a general term to include the whole species..

Syenite :: Syenite (n.) Orig., a rock composed of quartz, hornblende, and feldspar, anciently quarried at Syene, in Upper Egypt, and now called granite..

Blent :: Blent (imp. & p. p.) Mingled; mixed; blended; also, polluted; stained..

Synsepalous :: Synpelmous (a.) Having the two main flexor tendons of the toes blended together.

Uranium :: Uranium (n.) An element of the chromium group, found in certain rare minerals, as pitchblende, uranite, etc., and reduced as a heavy, hard, nickel-white metal which is quite permanent. Its yellow oxide is used to impart to glass a delicate greenish-yellow tint which is accompanied by a strong fluorescence, and its black oxide is used as a pigment in porcelain painting. Symbol U. Atomic weight 239..

Gneiss :: Gneiss (n.) A crystalline rock, consisting, like granite, of quartz, feldspar, and mica, but having these materials, especially the mica, arranged in planes, so that it breaks rather easily into coarse slabs or flags. Hornblende sometimes takes the place of the mica, and it is then called hornblendic / syenitic gneiss. Similar varieties of related rocks are also called gneiss..

Pitch-ore :: Pitch-ore (n.) Pitchblende.

Sphalerite :: Sphalerite (n.) Zinc sulphide; -- called also blende, black-jack, false galena, etc. See Blende (a)..

Diorite :: Diorite (n.) An igneous, crystalline in structure, consisting essentially of a triclinic feldspar and hornblende. It includes part of what was called greenstone..

Blinde :: Blinde (n.) See Blende.

Zinc :: Zinc (n.) An abundant element of the magnesium-cadmium group, extracted principally from the minerals zinc blende, smithsonite, calamine, and franklinite, as an easily fusible bluish white metal, which is malleable, especially when heated. It is not easily oxidized in moist air, and hence is used for sheeting, coating galvanized iron, etc. It is used in making brass, britannia, and other alloys, and is also largely consumed in electric batteries. Symbol Zn. Atomic weight 64.9..
