De même que l'on pratique la pétrographie pour aboutir à la pétrologie, il faut pratiquer la métallographie pour aboutir à la métallogénie. [...] Le terme de métallographie présente l'inconvénient d'être utilisé par les métallurgistes pour désigner l'étude microscopique des sections polies de métaux et d'alliages, et non de minéraux. 2, record 2, French, - m%C3%A9tallographie
