The infra-red emission from dust grains in a composite circumstellar dust shell heated by a supernova is investigated. The grain population in the dust shell is composed of both core-mantle (corundum-silicate) and homogeneous (corundum) grains. It is found that specific features in the infrared spectrum are characteristic of such core-mantle grains only. Suitable observations could therefore provide a means of determining the nature of the grains that condense in an oxygen rich environment around supernovae and of determining the period of time over which grains condense.
