A bstract Most of the various types of glass stones actually found under operating conditions in furnaces melting soda‐lime bottle glass are discussed. Each type is described in detail and photomicrographs of each kind of stone are shown. The possible source of each type of stone is considered along with general methods for its identification and elimination. Auxiliary aids to the petrographer, such as the use of solvent acids and chemical analyses, are mentioned. The stone specimens have been taken from flint, amber, and green‐colored glasses.
