Abstract
Synthetic and very pure single crystals of nickel iodine boracite up to 10 mm in their largest dimensions were grown by a chemical transport process and investigated using a selfcompensating recording torsion balance. Below 60°K ferromagnetic behaviour was observed. In the (100) plane large tetragonal torsion moments having frequent discontinuities were observed.
