In the systematic hydrothermal investigation or mineral systems in modern laboratories, the influence of several variables can be determined. In most recent studies the variables have been three: composition of the solid phase, temperature, pressure of water in contact with the solid phase. In general the investigators have varied each of these three properties of the systems and have determined the shifts in mineral equilibria caused by each change. In nature, mineral assemblages are undoubtedly controlled by other r variables in addition to these three. The present paper is concerned with an attempt to determine experimentally whether changes in other physical conditions are reflected by changes in the minerals present at a given temperature.
