A K-feldspar–liquid hygrometer specific to alkaline differentiated magmas [PDF]
We present a K-feldspar–liquid hygrometer specific to alkaline differentiated magmas that is calibrated through the regression analysis of sanidine and anorthoclase crystals coexisting with trachyte and phonolite melts. Partial-regression leverage plots were used to determine the minimum number of regression parameters that closely describe the ...

Nanoscopic feldspar islands on K-feldspar microcline (001) [PDF]
High-resolution atomic force microscopy on microcline (001) reveals nanoscopic islands, which have the same atomic structure as the terrace and are stable in contact with water. The islands were identified as an intrinsic feature of the surface.

In this study, six strains with potassium-dissolving ability were screened from the soils collected from a K-feldspar mining area . One of them, which named JX-10 strain was identified as a kind of bacterium, by 16 S rRNA gene sequencing. Simultaneously,

Potassium recovery from Brazilian glauconitic siltstone by hydrothermal treatments
Silicate rock Verdete, collected in the central region of Minas Gerais state (Brazil) and composed mostly of micas (glauconite and muscovite) and tectosilicates (K-feldspar and quartz), was hydrothermally treated with several reactants in order to ...

K-feldspar sand-grain provenance in the Triassic, west of Shetland : distinguishing first-cycle and recycled sediment sources? [PDF]
Sandstone provenance studies can help constrain palaeogeographic reconstructions and ancient drainage system scales and pathways. However, these insights can be obscured by difficulties in geochemically distinguishing or adequately characterising ...

Utilization of Vinasse and Feldspar as Alternative Sources of Potassium Fertilizers and Their Effect on Some Soil Properties and Crop Yield in Sandy Soils [PDF]
A field experiment was carried out for two successive seasons (winter season 2013/2014 and summer season 2014 ) on sandy soil at Ismailia Agric. Res. Station , Ismailia Governorate, Egypt (Latitude, 30o 35' 41.901" N and longitude, 32o 16' 45.834" E) to ...

Sedimentology, sandstone provenance and palaeodrainage on the eastern Rockall Basin margin : evidence from the Pb isotopic composition of detrital K-feldspar [PDF]
The Rockall Basin, west of Ireland, is a frontier area for hydrocarbon exploration but currently the age and location of sand fairways through the basin are poorly known.

Weathering microenvironments on feldspar surfaces: implications for understanding fluid-mineral reactions in soils [PDF]
The mechanisms by which coatings develop on weathered grain surfaces, and their potential impact on rates of fluid-mineral interaction, have been investigated by examining feldspars from a 1.1 ky old soil in the Glen Feshie chronosequence, Scottish ...
