| Abstract/Notes | The untimely death of Sir John B. Harrison on February 8, 1926, just as he was returning home after over forty-six years' service in the West Indian colonies; unfortunately prevented the publication by him of a complete account of the interesting new mineral which, as a result of much patient chemical work, he had discovered in British Guiana. As he had corresponded with me on this matter since April, 1924, and further, as this is the same mineral that I had myself erroneously described as 'allopalladium', I feel it my duty to place on record the full facts so far as can now be ascertained.I had suggested that the new mineral might be named after Sir John Harrison, but this he objected to ; and, in consultation with the Governor of British Guiana, he proposed the name potarite (letter of April 8, 1925), but he did not himself record this name in print. |
