    The possibility of determination of ore mineral polarization color indices by using the principle and method of colorimetry are discussed in this paper. More than one hundred values of polarization color indices of ore minerals (Rvis, X, Y, λd, Pe) are calculated, in the first place, by using the principal reflectances (R1 and R2) of anisotropic ore minerals, determined under different wavelengths.

    There exists two pyroxenes of low and high pressure types in the system NaCrSi2O6- NaScSi2O6. The observed optical transition of octahedral Cr3+ 4A2g4T1g denoted by ν2 clearly show two separate trends in the wave number-chemical composition diagram, reflecting the conditions under which the pyroxenes formed. The two separate trends are related to the variation of the O1A1-M1-O1B2 angle in the pyroxene structures.

    Serpentinized ultramafic rocks and Sangun metamorphic rocks occur in the Sasaguri area, Fukuoka Prefecture. Lizardite and antigorite are the most abundant rock-forming minerals in the Sasaguri ultramafic rocks and are accompanied by lesser amounts of chrysotile (2Mcl and 2Orcl), magnetite, chromite, pyrite, pentlandite, millerite, forsterite, chlorite, talc, tremolite, anthophyllite, calcite, dolomite, magnesite, aragonite, hydromagnesite, artinite, brucite, pyroaurite, coalingite, szaiberyite, sepiolite, and deweylite, Serpentinites can be divided into following four types by the assemblage and grain size of serpentine minerals:
    (1) lizardite serpentinite,
    (2) lizardite-antigorite serpentinite,
    (3) fine-grained antigorite serpentinite,
    (4) coarse-grained antigorite serpentinite.
    The representative rock-forming serpentine minerals (five antigorites and one lizardite) and the two vein-forming fibrous chrysotiles in lizardite serpentinite were examined by X-ray, chemical, electron optical, thermal, and infrared absorption analyses.
    The significant differences in chemical composition and structural properties of antigorties are found. Fine-grained antigorites have low Fe contents (total FeO=1.6-2.5 wt%) and long supercell parameters (A=41.8-42.5 Å), and coarse-grained antigorites have high Fe contents (toal FeO=4.9-6.0 wt%) and short supercell parameters (A=35.4-40.5 Å).
    Lizardite and chrysotile show low Fe contents (total FeO=1-3 wt%). Many lizardite serpentinites in this area contain chrysotile 2Mcl. Its proportion is approximately 20 to 30 wt%.
    Povlen-type chrysotile is found in the vein-forming chrysotile specimen by electron microscope examinations.

    Major and trace element abundances of basanite from Izu peninsula have been determined. Although primordial mantle-normalized incompatible element patterns of tholeiite and highalumina basalt in Izu peninsula district show a typical island arc type, those of basanite only exhibit the similarity to oceanic island alkali basalt type, except low ratios of Zr and Hf.
