- Not replaced.
- 1921, C. K. Leith, The Economic Aspect of Geology[1]:
- They were clearly formed by replacement of the schists particle by particle, as shown by the frequent preservation of the schist structure in a banding of the sulphide minerals, the residual shreds of unreplaced schist material in the ores, and the usual gradual transition from unreplaced schists to those completely replaced by massive sulphides.
- 1992 August 28, Bobby London, “Blood, Sweat, and Ink”, in Chicago Reader[2]:
- At this same time, my copy began coming back to me uncorrected; words whited out and not replaced in the haste of a deadline remained unreplaced, spelling errors (and I don't mean "potatoe") remained uncorrected.
