HIGHLIGHTS
- who: Gan Duan from the SchoolMonash University have published the research: Kinetically driven successive sodic and potassic alteration of feldspar, in the Journal: NATURE COMMUNICATIONS NATURE COMMUNICATIONS
- what: Based on characterisation of the reaction products and thermodynamic modelling of the fluid-mineral interaction, the authors demonstrate that at the micro-scale, sequential sodic and potassic alterations can be driven by Na-rich fluids (i.e., not much K Volume percent (%) in the fluid is required to stabilise K-feldspar versus albite), and is promoted by a self-evolving, kinetically-driven process. The authors aim to . . .
