Comments: | "The felspars consist of a mixture of microcline, oligoclase and orthoclase. all crystals tend to be marginally corroded and argillised, which may be due to hydrolytic effects associated with metasomatic introduction of hematite" -12- pg143, R0B05.P "Felspars are principally potassic varieties, microcline and turbid argillised orthoclases, but with a minor proportion of plagioclase, oglioclase to andesine in composition." -14- pg 183, ED02/0618.3/00.2P Notes taken from Rowlands, N.J., Stuart, N.F., & Edwards, P.
