Igneous and Metamorphic Petrology
For example, a rock whose mode in terms of QAPF plots at U is a quartz syenite,
V is a monzonite, W is a feldspathoid-bearing monzodiorite, X is a feldspathoid
monzodiorite, and Z is a feldspathoid syenite. Rocks plotting in the small darkly ...

A Dictionary of Geology and Earth Sciences
The group includes the minerals *nepheline (a sodic feldspathoid), *leucite (a
potassic feldspathoid), and *sodalite (a sodium, chlorine-bearing feldspathoid).
The mineral *analcime, although a *zeolite, is closely related to the feldspathoids

All samples have abundant normative nepheline and modal feldspathoid, both as
groundmass phases and as euhedral phenocrysts, commonly quite large. All
contain microphenocrysts of titanian clinopyroxene, titanite, apatite and variably ...

Igneous Rocks and Processes: A Practical Guide
Box9.1 Feldspathoid minerals and melilite Feldspathoids ('foids' for short) are the
key minerals that identify silicaundersaturated rocks. Those that occur in igneous
rocks (i.e. disregarding scapolite) have compositions that can be thought of as ...

This is a pyroxene- rich olivine-bearing ultramafic volcanic rock which contains
no visible feldspar or feldspathoid, although its chemical analysis indicates that a
little calcic plagioclase and considerable feldspathoid are occult in the brown ...

4.4.5 Feldspathoid Silica Saturation Index To distinguish these three types of
alkaline rocks, Frost and Frost (2008) defined one additional index, the
Feldspathoid Silica Saturation Index (FSSI): FSSI = (Q – (Lct + 2Nph))/100 Where

Field Guide to Rocks & Minerals of Southern Africa
Orthoclase has a similar distribution pattern to that of microcline and can be
found in the pegmatites in that area. FELDSPATHOID GROUP The feldspathoids
are a group of minerals chemically related to the feldspars, but contain less silica.

The Encyclopedia of the Solid Earth Sciences
feldspathoid minerals change from monoclinic sodium sanidine to triclinic
anorthoclase (Fig. F9). Phase relationships in plagioclase (Fig. F10) are much
less well understood than alkali feldspar. The liquidus and solidus form a simple
loop, ...
