Data from the thermal emission spectrometer onboard the Mars Global Surveyor suggests that plagioclase is the most abundant mineral in the crust of Mars. albite fraction (Ab). Plagioclase minerals are important constituents of many metamorphic rocks, such as gneiss, where they can be inherited from an igneous protolith or formed during the regional metamorphism of sedimentary rocks. Transparent material of high quality is also cut into faceted gemstones which are often sold as âcollector gems.â With a Mohs hardness of 6 and perfect cleavage, these stones are usually considered to be too fragile for use in jewelry. As with many minerals, plagioclase occurs in other parts of the solar system. decrease is partly because quartz is more physically and chemically durable The minerals of the plagioclase series are listed in the table below along with their relative abundance of albite (Ab) and anorthite (An). Plagioclase minerals are important constituents They are major constituents in a wide range of intrusive and extrusive igneous rocks including granite, diorite, gabbro, rhyolite, andesite, and basalt. Plagioclase refers to a series of silicate minerals in which the amount of sodium (Na) and calcium (Ca) varies. Labradorite: An igneous rock composed almost entirely of iridescent plagioclase. Moonstone is a name given to a gem material that Hardness: 6 - 6.5: Crystal System: Triclinic: Crystal Forms and Aggregates: Crystals are rare for the Plagioclase Feldspars, except for Albite and Oligoclase. Some specimens of labradorite exhibit a schiller With the 50% rule, all of the mineral members occuring between these two are not considered valid minerals by IMA. Crystals are usually flat and bladed, and commonly in compact groupings. occurrences include: Widespread; a few localities for good crystals are: Cite this article as: Geology Science. In fact, feldspar is the standard for hardness 6 in the Mohs scale. It is usually easy to distinguish plagioclase feldspars because their two planes of cleavage intersect at 90-degree angles, and their cleavage faces often display striations. Comments: Dual view of a cleavage fragment of labradorite showing the multi-colored labradorescence (schiller effect) and the same area viewed without the color.The color is due to optical interference on Bøggild exsolution lamellae. Location: Ihosy, Betroka district, Toliara Province, Madagascar.Scale: Picture size 3x3 cm. Most of them exhibit two directions of perfect cleavage that intersect at or close to ninety degrees. Feldspars show perfect or very good cleavage in two dimensions. Feldspars are hard minerals, all of them with a hardness of 6 on the Mohs scale. The names of the minerals in the series are arbitrarily given based upon their relative abundance of albite and anorthite. The composition of a plagioclase feldspar is typically denoted by its overall fraction of anorthite (%An) or albite (%Ab), and readily determined by measuring the plagioclase crystal's refractive index in crushed grain mounts, or its extinction angle in thin section under a polarizing microscope. Plagioclase minerals are important constituents of many metamorphic rocks, such as gneiss, where they can be inherited from an igneous protolith or formed during the regional metamorphism of sedimentary rocks. On Mt. Feldspar - Feldspar - Crystal structure: Sanidine and orthoclase are monoclinic or nearly so; the plagioclase feldspars are triclinic. Hokkaido; and other places in Japan. Basically, 50% rule says that Na dominant plagioclase is now albite and Ca dominant is anorthite. Plagioclase is a common clast produced during the weathering of igneous and metamorphic rocks. Feldspars usually are white or nearly white, though they may be clear or light shades of orange or buff. effect, which is a strong play of iridescent blue, green, red, orange, and This diagram shows how feldspar minerals are classified on You can use the 'Select all' or 'Deselect all' options to help you tailor your table quickly and easily. white or gray. It is a vesicular basalt made up of approximately 50% pyroxene, 30% plagioclase, and 20% other minerals. Mineral Group: Feldspar group, plagioclase series. Feldspar in rocks: This chart summarizes the mineral compositions of common igneous rocks. All feldspar minerals have two directions of perfect cleavage. The specific gravity depends strongly on composition and varies between 2.5-2.9 g/cm 3. Tavetsch, GraubuÄnden. Reddish; may be chatoyant. approximately 90 degrees. Oregon Sunstone as a faceted stone and a cabochon. Dekalb, Macomb, and Pierrepont, St. Lawrence Co., New York. This specimen is from the Petaca District of New Mexico and measures about 4 inches (10 cm) across. In basaltic rocks it is normally gray to black. The composition of plagioclase feldspar is typically to the obtuse cleavage angles of the good cleavages. [online] Available at: https://geologyscience.com/minerals/plagioclase-feldspar/ [29th November 2020 ], Economically Important Metal Concentrations in Earth’s Crust, Porphyry Deposits: General characteristics and modeling, https://geologyscience.com/minerals/plagioclase-feldspar/. Italy. The name âplagioclaseâ is frequently used instead of one of the more specific names in the table above. crushed particles by measuring the refraction angle under a thin section. Polymorphism & The stone on the right is a beautiful orange 7x5 mm oval faceted stone weighing 1.01 carats. Plagioclase is series of framework silicate minerals in feldspar group. These rocks are also cut and polished for use as countertops, stair treads, wall panels, building facing, monuments, and many other types of decorative and architectural stone. Series: Low- and high-temperature structural modi¯cations are recognized. There are several plagioclase feldspars in the seriesbetween albite and anorthite. Plagioclase. These flashes from reflective particles are known as âaventurescence.â In Oregon, transparent gem-quality labradorite with a yellow, orange, red, blue, or green color is also called âsunstoneâ when it is mined from the same deposit as the aventurescent material. The plagioclase feldspars form a solid solution series between the end members of pure albite (NaAlSi3O8) and pure anorthite (CaAl2Si2O8). Bytownite: An igneous rock composed almost entirely of bytownite. Thedeflection angle is an optical characteristic and varies according to thealbite fraction (Ab). The plagioclase feldspars form a solid solution series between the end members of pure albite (NaAlSi3O8) and pure anorthite (CaAl2Si2O8). Most feldspar minerals have a Mohs hardness of approximately 6 to 6.5 and a specific gravity between 2.5 and 2.8.
