Abstract
Three statistical tests, depending upon the probability distribution of X-ray intensities, have been applied to orthoclase, sanidine, and albite. It is concluded that these three felspars posses centres of symmetry, justifying the assumption of holohedral symmetry made in earlier structure analyses.Keywords
