In sharp contrast with the above-mentioned statement, the famous Mendeleev historian, Michael Gordin, claimed in his book on Dmitrii Mendeleev and the Shadow of the Periodic Table that it does not follow [...] that Mendeleev must have been thinking in terms of physical atomism when he conceived his system. [...] Mendeleev s scepticism toward atomism sharply emphasises the difference between the present-day interpretation of the periodic system and Mendeleev s views of 1869. [...] For Mendeleev, any atoms that might exist had absolutely no... 

This homologous placement of the rare-earth elements shows to what extend Mendeleev s viewpoints had changed by the end of the first half of 1870. What catches the eye is that Dmitrii Ivanovich had switched from placing the rare-earth elements as a group in the periodic system to an individual placement of each element separately (Fig. 11.6). That is, by breaking up the natural group of rare earths, Mendeleev ended up with a set of distinct elements which he set out to accommodate on an individual basis in dijferent groups of the system. 

Mendeleev continued how especially important it was for him to obtain as large an amount of titanium minerals as possible, together with their place of origin, if possible. Specifically rutile [TiOJ, ilmenite [FeTiOs], and also other minerals zirconium [Zr], orthite, or cerite and eschynite. Dmitrii Ivanovich quickly...
