A mineral shows incongruent melting when, on heating, it breaks down into another solid and a liquid of a different composition, instead of melting into a liquid of its own composition. On a binary phase diagram, the point where that liquid coexists with both solids is a peritectic point: unlike a eutectic, it does not lie between the compositions of the two solids.
