A treatise on the external character of minerals
These are, A. The planes of the bevelment : B. The edges of the bevelment, of
which there are two kinds : a. the proper edge, which is that formed by the
meeting of the two bevelling planes ; 6. the edges formed by the bevelling and

These are three ; truncation, bevelment, and acumination or termination. By each
of these supposed alterations new faces are produced on the crystal ; and their
inclination to the contiguous faces may be measured by a goniometer. 78.
