Description for Feldspars and Their Reactions
Hardback. Feldspar minerals make up 60 per cent of the crust of the Earth. They are stable in the upper mantle, and are so abundant in the crust that they form the basis of the classification of igneous rocks. This book reviews the chemical reactions of feldspars over the whole sweep of pressure and temperature regimes in the outer Earth. Editor(s): Parsons, Ian. Series: NATO Science Series C. Num Pages: 680 pages, biography. BIC Classification: PNV; RBGG. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly; (UU) Undergraduate. Dimension: 235 x 155 x 36. Weight in Grams: 1127.
Feldspar minerals make up 60% of the crust of the Earth. They are stable in the upper mantle, and are so abundant in the crust that they form the basis of the classification of igneous rocks. At the surface, feldspars weather to form clay minerals which are the most important mineral constituent of soils. The articles in this book review the chemical reactions of feldspars over the whole sweep of pressure and temperature regimes in the outer Earth, and describe the fundamental aspects of crystal structure which underlie their properties.
