Llewellyn, here is one we were given in a workshop that we have used and
gives a fairly nice purple matt in reduction at closer to Cone 10. I think
it is a bit light in silica, but it is a matt which usually are lighter in
silica. This might be the time to start a discussion with Ron and John about
whether the principals in their book can be applied to Cone 10 by simply
adjusting for the limits from Cone 6 to 10, but keeping the fluxes the same.
