    Abstract: 
    Thirteen short contributions from the Smithsonian's Department of Mineral Sciences for 1972 and 1973 are gathered together in this volume. Scientific contributions include new data on some mercury minerals from Terlingua, Texas; a description of dashkesanite from St. Paul's Rocks; a note on high-alumina basalt from the Aleutian Trench; descriptions of samples from the Apollo 15 and 16 lunar missions; chondrule composition of the Allende meteorite; the Pulsora meteorite and metamorphic equilibration in chondrites; the possible survival of very large meteorites that encounter the earth's surface; data on eight observed-fall chondritic meteorites; chemical analyses of two microprobe standards; and a technological note on the preparation of multiple microprobe samples. A history of mineral sciences in the Smithsonian Institution and a list of meteorites in the Smithsonian collections complete the volume.
