Fig. 8. The anortite content as a function of grain size. te. We were unable to observe correlation between the anortite content and the twin laws ; to find proper correlation far more measurements and greater differences in acidic values would be necessary. In the zones, which follow one after the other,' the y optical symmetry axes are relatively close, the a and ß optical symmetry axes are farther from each other. The drawn twin axis from the optical symmetry axes is always more precise with the least triangle of error at the Roc-Tourné twin law, than at the Albite and Carlsbad twin laws. Drawing the twin axis of the Albite twin, the size of the tri­angle of error is rarely less, than 3°. Frequently, the measure pole of the (010) intergrowth and cleavage plane does not fall into the triangle of error. If two twin complexes twinning Albite, Carlsbad and Roc-Tourné are perpen­dicular it characterizes the "Banat" intergrowth. If two complexes are neither parallel, nor perpendicular, and there are re-entering angle between them, it charac­terizes the Börzsöny and Visegrád twin laws. In spite of this conspicuous feature we can not determine the twin law without taking precise measurements. The angle is a function of the section and it can be delusive if one complex is twinning accord­ing to Albite, Carlsbad and Roc-Tourné, while the other according to Manebach, Acline, or Ala and Albite-Ala. In cases of the perpendicular and inclined intergrowth the zones with inclusions show, that they are twinning and not chance intergrowth. Figures 3 an 4 show two inclined intergrowth; the fourth is a Baveno twin, the third is a twinning according to a pinacoid being in the [001].
