Feldspars in Weathering | SpringerLink

Abstract. Feldspar weathering occurs via dissolution of all components into solution, with the subsequent precipitation of secondary minerals from solution, and it is the feldspars dissolution rate which controls the overall rate of feldspar weathering. The rate of feldspar dissolution is controlled by the kinetics of surface reactions at the ...Web

Feldspar | SpringerLink

The feldspar with a composition between orthoclase and albite is known as alkali feldspar owing to the presence of alkali ions such as K + and Na ++, and the version between anorthite and albite as plagioclase feldspar. Feldspar is especially abundant in igneous rocks (e.g. granite). Granitic rocks may contain up to 60% of alkali rocks; …Web
