Abstract
In previous chapters we have considered the chemical range of amphibole compositions, and the structural basis for this variation. The next three chapters will summarize experimentally determined stability relationships involving double-chain silicates; an attempt also will be made to apply these data to appropriate natural occurrences. Hydrothermal methods and equilibration techniques are discussed briefly in this section, as well as disparities between natural conditions and experimentally controlled conditions.
