Review of the Post-IR IRSL Dating Protocols of K-Feldspar [PDF]
Compared to quartz, the infrared stimulated luminescence (IRSL) of K-feldspar saturates at higher dose, which has great potential for extending the dating limit.

Microfluidic Leaching of Soil Minerals: Release of K+ from K Feldspar. [PDF]
The rate of K+ leaching from soil minerals such as K-feldspar is believed to be too slow to provide agronomic benefit. Currently, theories and methods available to interpret kinetics of mineral processes in soil fail to consider its microfluidic nature ...

The Thermoluminescence Parameters of Irradiated K-Feldspar
Isothermal decay of the TL glow curve has been studied at ambient temperature. Heating of feldspar at 600ºC leads to increased sensitivity of the samples upon irradiation for the whole range of glow curve.

How much K is OK? Evaluating different methods for K-concentration determination and the effect of the internal K concentration on feldspar luminescence dating [PDF]
For luminescence dating of potassium-rich (K) feldspars, the presence of 40K within the K-feldspar grains contributes significantly to the internal dose rate of the sample.

Mesoscale and microscopic structures record compaction and crystal-melt segregation in silicic mushes [PDF]
Gravitationally-driven compaction has been proposed as an important mechanism for crystal-melt segregation in silicic mushes. However, there is no microstructural evidence of crystal deformation consistent with compaction in silicic plutonic rocks.

Sustainable method to extract potassium from K-feldspar using limestone flotation tailings
This study explores the potential use of limestone flotation tailings (LFT) for recovering potash values from K-feldspar (K2O, 11.4 wt.%). High-temperature leaching tests of potassium-enriched feldspar powder using various mineral acids reveal
