The aim of our synthetic experiments was to artificially obtain individual components of stone casting in a well-individualized form and in sufficient quantity. We were to synthesize, first, those minerals that were identified by petrographers during microscopic examination of stone casting, and second, those minerals whose presence in the casting could only be assumed. The latter might be present in the form of microlites and could not be determined optically, but could be detected by X-ray diffraction studies of the stone casting. The minerals we synthesized were to be subjected to X-ray diffraction analysis in order to obtain standard Debye patterns (reference patterns) necessary for interpreting the Debye patterns of stone casting. In accordance with this task, the synthesis method chosen was the crystallization of minerals from the corresponding melts.
