A mineralogical perspective on the granite alkali feldspar megacrysts paradox
Alkali feldspar megacrysts (commonly named K-feldspar) are a distinctive feature of many plutonic rocks. Yet, there is still no consensus on their origin. Two main contrasting explanations have been proposed so far: (i) the megacrysts form late during the crystallization history of the plutonic rock in which they occur and attain their large size in a ...

Skeletal quartz and dendritic biotite: Witnesses of primary disequilibrium growth textures in an alkali-feldspar granite [PDF]
Abstract We describe a case of S-type alkali-feldspar granite (quartz/K-feldspar/plagioclase/ biotite/garnet ∼ 30/35/20/13/2 vol%) showing skeletal and dendritic textures. It consists of three nested units distinguishable by the size of biotite crystals: a first-emplaced unit characterized by small biotite flakes (0.4–9 mm); a second unit with cm ...

Alkali feldspars in the Tanakami granite, southwest Japan, contain a complicated fine-scale mixture of various micro-textures; lamellar crypto- and micro-perthites and micropore-rich patch perthites. Mineralogical examination mainly by TEM and SEM disclosed that there are two formational stages of these micro-textures, the subsolidus cooling stage and ...

Pseudomorphism of alkali feldspar to biotite from the alkaline nana complex granite in Cameroon
Alkaline complexes all over the world generally are enriched in high–field strength elements and rare earth elements. This enrichment can be accounted for by magmatic processes, but, many of these complexes display evidence of hydrothermal alteration. In
