Hybridization in the subvolcanic Jaala-Iitti complex and its petrogenetic relation to rapakivi granites and associated mafic rocks of southeastern Finland [PDF]
The 1630 Ma Jaala-Iitti complex is an example of bimodal rapakivi granite magmatism in which the interaction of granite and diabase magmas have led locally to hybridization.

The Behavior of Water in Orthoclase Crystal and Its Implications for Feldspar Alteration
The phenomenon of feldspar alteration that occurs in the interior of feldspar crystals remains poorly understood. We observed experimentally that water can go into orthoclase crystals under pressures of up to 600 MPa at room temperature.

Anisotropy of magnetic susceptibility in alkali feldspar and plagioclase [PDF]
Feldspars are the most abundant rock-forming minerals in the Earth’s crust, but their magnetic properties have not been rigorously studied. This work focuses on the intrinsic magnetic anisotropy of 31 feldspar samples with various chemical compositions ...

MINERALOGY AND RADIOACTIVITY OF EL-ROSIS SHEAR ZONE, SOUTHERN SINI, EGYPT. [PDF]
Ei-Rosis area is mainly covered by syeno- and alkali feldspar granites intruded into the granodiorites with sharp contacts. The alkali feldspar granite is dissected by WNW-ESE shear zone along which alteration products such as hematitization and ...

Experimental determination of plagioclase dissolution rates as a function of its composition and pH at 22°C. [PDF]
The steady-state, far-from-equilibrium dissolution rates of nine distinct plagioclases ranging in composition from An2 to An89 were measured in mixed flow reactors at 22 ± 2 C and pH from 2 to 11.

Petrology and mineralogy of the Ulaan Del Zr-Nb-REE deposit, Lake Zone, Western Mongolia
The Ulaan Del deposit is located in the Lake Zone, Western Mongolia. In the area, middle-late Devonian alkali dykes of the Khalzan Complex are hosted in the middle-late Cambrian granodiorite-tonalite of the Togthohiinshil Complex. The alkali dykes of the
