Samples of cyanite and andalusite have been examined by the X‐ray diffraction method, and it has been found that the structures of these two compounds are Merent from one another and from sillimanite. Upon heating, the compounds are converted into another form which gives the diffraction pattern of mullite or sillimanite.
