Spectrophotometry at 8 - 13 μm of Mkn 231 confirms that the 10 μm minimum is due to large columns of silicate dust in the line-of-sight to the nucleus. Fits to the detailed spectral shape demonstrate that the cool absorbing grains are at the emission (z = 0.042) rather than the absorption (z ≡ 0.025) redshift and are located within the nuclear region.
