Origin of alkali-feldspar granites: An example from the Poimena Granite, northeastern Tasmania, Australia

Geochimica Et Cosmochimica Acta, 1988
The Lottah Granite is a composite pluton of tin-mineralised, strongly peraluminous alkali-feldspar granite which intrudes the Poimena Granite, a major component of the mid-Devonian Blue Tier Batholith of northeastern Tasmania. Earlier workers interpreted the Lottah Granite as a metasomatised differentiate of the Poimena Granite.

Petrogenesis of Paleoproterozoic alkali-feldspar granites associated with alkaline rocks from the Trans-North China Orogen

Precambrian Research, 2021
Abstract Granitoids are the dominant component of the continental crust and can be used as probes for crustal formation and evolution. The origin of granites, especially ambiguous granites with alkaline affinities emplaced in orogenic settings, however, remains controversial.

Metasomatic alkali-feldspar syenites (episyenites) of the Proterozoic Suomenniemi rapakivi granite complex, southeastern Finland

Lithos, 2017
Abstract Peralkaline to marginally metaluminous alkali-feldspar syenites and quartz alkali-feldspar syenites are hosted by subalkaline, ferroan rapakivi granites in the 1644 Ma Suomenniemi complex of southeastern Finland. These alkali syenites form NW-oriented dikes and small ( 99 and Or 90–100 Ab 0–10 ) and hypersolvus (Or 40–60 Ab 40–60 ) feldspar

Dislocation formation and albitization in alkali feldspars from the Shap Granite

American Mineralogist, 1997
Orthoclase-rich alkali feldspars in the Lower Devonian Shap granite, northwest England, contain two generations of albite-rich feldspar. These have partially replaced earlier exsolution microtextures consisting of albite lamellae (coarse semicoherent albite films and fine coherent albite platelets) in tweed orthoclase.

Alkali feldspars from part of the Galway granite, Ireland

Mineralogical Magazine, 1972
SummaryThe structural states of alkali feldspars from the eastern end of the Galway Granite show transitions from orthoclase to microcline as a result of late deformation. Analyses of twenty samples for SiO2, Al2O3, TiO2, Fe2O3, CaO, Na2O, K2O, S, Cu, Zn, Ga, Rb, Sr, Ba, and Pb agree with previously determined orders of entry of elements into the ...

South-western Granites and Alkali-Feldspar Megacrysts

Nature, 1969
BOOTH has extended his conclusions concerning the Land's End granites to the other granitic masses of south-west England and has raised several points that require further consideration1. These include his sweeping correlation between the granite bosses, the nucleation and growth of metasomatic alkali feldspars and the distribution of potassium between

The Identification of Granitic Fire-Cracked Rocks Using Luminescence of Alkali Feldspars

American Antiquity, 1999
The question of Fire-Cracked Rock (FCR) in Woodland contexts has become an important and controversial topic in Western Great Lakes archaeology. There are no clear and widely accepted criteria for distinguishing FCR when the rocks show no observable characteristics associated with fire (heating and cooling).

Ordering and unmixing of alkali feldspars in a porphyritic granite and its country rocks

TMPM Tschermaks Mineralogische und Petrographische Mitteilungen, 1982
50 alkali feldspars from a Variscan porphyritic granite and 27 from two country rocks of Caledonian and Variscan age respectively have been investigated for their bulk chemistries and their structural states. Ordering is illustrated in thebc-plot afterStewart andWright (1974); unmixing is illustrated in a newly designed diagram with the Or-contents of ...

Exsolution and alteration microtextures in alkali feldspar phenocrysts from the Shap granite

Mineralogical Magazine, 1995
AbstractAlkali feldspar phenocrysts (bulk composition Or75.0Ab24.6An0.4) in the subsolvus Shap granite comprise a fine-scale mixture of subregular pristine crypto- and micro-perthites with altered, micropore-rich feldspar with irregular microstructures.

Gahnite and columbite in an alkali-feldspar granite from New Zealand

Mineralogical Magazine, 1981
AbstractGahnite and columbite with compositions (Zn5.96Fe1.55Mg0.21Mn0.13)Σ7.85Al16.09O32and (Nb7.36Ta0.60Mn2.95Fe0.98Ti0.09)Σ11.98O24occur as accessory phases in a highly evolved garnetiferous muscovite alkalifeldspar granite. Both phases have developed as a result of a concentration of Zn, Nb, and Ta during the fmal stages of the fractional ...
