A STUDY OF POLYTYPISM IN SILICON CARBIDE P,,rur, I
silicon carbide-blue, black, green, yellow, and even brown-were rep-resented. In a number of cases, as discussed beiow, colour zoning was prominent. The crystals were all euhedral, generally platy and thin ( (0.5 mm), and measured from about 0.5 to 18 mm across. All but a few of the crystals were ol very high puritl'.
