Moore classification of this type, which takes into con emphasized that this book "is really not an end in sideration the distribution of bonds in a structure, itself. Rather it is a rallying call to urge further was that of silicates proposed by Machatschki clarification, representation and systematization (1928) and developed by Bragg (1930) and Naray of already known structures". If we consider the Szabo (1930). new book by Lima-de-Faria, Structural Classi The pure structural classification of minerals fication of Minerals, in this context, we can ask was first proposed by J.

The twentieth century was characterized by structural classification of inorganic compounds great progress in the study of minerals.
