CONT

Le prospecteur porte en général [...] son attention sur les minéraux [...] ayant des formes cristallines et des couleurs caractéristiques, et indicatifs de tel ou tel métal. Ils sont ses guides minéralogiques principaux et les plus directs. [...] Mais en dehors des minéraux «guides», des travaux [...] ont montré l'importance qu'il faut attacher à l'étude de la «limonite», de sa couleur, de sa structure et de sa position.
