What was hydrophilite?
mann (Handb. Mineral. (i813) , 857) as a coating on gypsum from the Lfineburg boracite deposit; he states that its constituents are calcium chloride and water, and that it is hygroscopic, deliquescent, very soluble in water, soluble in alcohol, and has an intensely bitter taste.
