About this document

Plagioclase Solid Solution Diagrams by Nisa Nurul Ilmi is a document available to read on EtoBox.

1) The document describes a solid solution phase diagram for plagioclase feldspars that explains their behavior under conditions of equilibrium crystallization. 2) The diagram plots the two endmember compositions, calcium-rich anorthite and sodium-rich albite, along the x-axis, with temperature along the y-axis. It is divided into fields denoting the co-existence of liquid and crystal phases. 3) The diagram shows that calcium-rich plagioclase crystallizes at higher temperatures, with decreasing calcium
