Based on hundreds of thin sections from granite in China, this book
introduces metasomatic textures and their formation mechanism in
granite. It also proposes that metasomatic textures can basically
be classified into two patterns: hetero-oriented replacement and
co-oriented replacement, according to the consistency of
orientations of replacive and replaced minerals. The
hetero-oriented albitization of K-feldspar is quite distinct from
the co-oriented albitization of K-feldspar. They occur separately
without transition, although both are generally referred to as
albitization of K-feldspar.This unique granite atlas uses a series
of color microphotos taken with a quartz plate under crossed polars
to clearly illustrate metasomatic mechanisms and superimposed
metasomatic processes. The origins of clear albite rim,
intergranular swapped albite, K-feldspathization, quartzification,
muscovitization, beryllization, myrmekite, small platy albite,
perthitic albite, K-feldspar megacryst etc. are comprehensively
discussed and explained. The book will appeal to teachers,
researchers and students involved in igneous and metamorphic
petrology.
