Feldspars are aluminosilicates whose formation occurs when in some silicon tetrahedra there is a substitution of Si 4+ by Al 3+, which causes a positive charge defect that will be compensated by different alkali and alkaline-earth cations (Fig. 1).The framework of feldspars consists of rings of four tetrahedra, where the corners of each …
Up-section, medium-bedded calcarenites consisting of redeposited platform material, such as ooids, echinoderm and mollusc fragments increase in abundance, associated with a higher input of siliciclastic detritus (quartz and feldspar grains and shale clasts).
Weathered granite contains a high concentration of feldspar, quartz, and kaolin. However, while it becomes rich in clay due to strong physical weathering, the granite minerals that are not fully weathered are still very hard, which makes the grinding process more difficult and limits its use. This study proposes a multi-step process involving …
The Oman Exotic limestones blocks in the Khatm El-Shiklah (KES) area, UAE-Oman border, were deposited sometime during Middle to early Late Permian. The KES exotic carbonates are closest in fossil assemblage and microlithofacies to the Qamar Formation (UAE, Dibba Zone) and Ba'id Formation (Oman).
Orthoclase Feldspar: Represented by the formula KAlSi 3 O 8, Orthoclase is the potassium feldspar member of the group. This is a common raw material for the manufacture of some glasses and ceramics. Plagioclase Feldspar: Comprised of a solid solution series from calcium to sodium (Ca,Na)AlSi 3 O 8. The variety within this type is significant ...

The Hiyam is mainly dolomite, but there is a member at the top that is a dolomitic limestone with stromatolites and cherts. The few fossil fragments identifiable from thin-sections provide conflicting evidence of Carboniferous–Permian age.
In Oman, each clinoform is described as comprising a basal "argillaceous zone" (herein designated "J-arg" for the J clinoform) and an overlying "reservoir zone" of relatively clean limestone (designated "J-res" for the J clinoform).
The Mohs hardness of most feldspars is 6; some can even reach 7. The specific gravity depends strongly on composition and varies between 2.5-2.9 g/cm 3.Feldspars show perfect or very good cleavage in two dimensions and crystals can be easily damaged or split.
Feldspar alteration is among the most important processes in clastic rocks during diagenesis, but uncertainty remains about the factors that control feldspar diagenesis under subsurface conditions. Hence, …
The feldspar group is one of the most common types of minerals in the earth's crust. Feldspar alteration (including the whole processes of feldspar dissolution, transfer of released solutes, and secondary mineral precipitation) is ubiquitous and important in fields including resources and environmental sciences.
In addition, relatively small outcrops of red-gray volcaniclastics and dark-gray weathering olivine basalt occur in the north-central part of the Qarn Sahmah dome. The basalt contains large, white centimeter-scale euhedral feldspar phenocrysts that were originally crystals of plagioclase (Fitch and Hudson, 1955). Other minerals are chlorite ...
The Amouslek Formation is a 40–220 m thick succession of variegated shale with interbedded limestone that is rich in archaeocyathan-microbial reefs (Fig. 2).The formation can be divided into shallowing-upward parasequences (up to 20 m thick), grading upward from shale to limestone, and commonly topped by ooidal–oncoidal shoals and …
Feldspar is the most abundant mineral group in the Earth's crust.There are more feldspars (60%) than all the other minerals combined in the outer (13-17) km of the crust 1.Feldspars occur in most igneous and metamorphic rocks.
The feldspar mineral group is one of the most abundantly occurring mineral groups due to it's ability to form within a wide variety of geological environments, such as in granite, clay, and sand. Feldspar is a member of the silicate family, an aluminum rich variety. Within the feldspar family, we have highlighted two distinct classifi
Calcite is the major component of limestone (typically more than 95%), and under surface conditions, limestone will dissolve to varying degrees (depending on which minerals it contains, other than calcite), as shown in Figure 5.12. Limestone also dissolves at relatively shallow depths underground, forming limestone caves.

There are two main types of feldspars and a third, very rare type. The first and most significant type is the plagioclase feldspars, which can occur in nearly every igneous and metamorphic rock as a rock forming mineral. ... The pure sodium feldspar, albite has the formula NaAlSi3O8 and the pure calcium endmember, anorthite has the formula ...
Five main dissolution rate laws have been used to describe feldspar dissolution rates, including the linear transition state theory (L-TST) rate law, non-linear TST rate law, parallel rate law, stepwave model rate law, and partial equilibrium law.

Feldspar forms in a variety of geological settings, from deep within the Earth's crust to the cooling lava of a volcano. This diversity in formation environments is a big reason why there are so many different …
Detrital feldspars most commonly undergo dissolution or alteration and replacement in subsurface settings, yet in many sandstones one also can find examples of authigenic feldspar cements. Such cements, in almost all cases, are either albite (the sodic end-member feldspar) or orthoclase (the K-spar end member)—see Chapter 2 for more …
