Abstract
Chemical and physical datas for stilpnomelanes are given. A study of correlations between physical datas and chemical composition gives the following results: 1. There is a linear correlation between chemical composition and indices of refraction and birefringence (a mathematical expression of this correlation is given). 2. There is no linear correlation between chemical composition and specific gravity. Detailed datas (bibliography, chemical analysis, X-ray diffraction and so on) will be published later.
