ermining interference colors: The most useful method of determining interference
ors is called "the grain edge method." When a mineral grain is cut, it is usually thinn
he edge and thicker at the center. This results in lower interference colors at the edg
a mineral grain relative to the center of the grain. For example, if the interference co
the mineral grain is 2° green at its center, then 1° gray, yellow and red bands may be
n at the edge.
