According to which, the source of the various groups of crystalline rocks above named was the superficial portion of a globe, once in a state of igneous fusion, but previously solidified from the center. This portion, rendered porous by cooling, was permeated... The Canadian Record of Science - Page 1471893Full view - About this book
