Abstract:Potash feldspar porphyroblasts occur in large quantity in the granite closely related to the gold ore deposits in the Zhaoyuan-Yexian area, especially in the Guojialing porphyritic granite. Based on the study of the chemistry, optical properties of the potash foldsparporphyroblasts, their replacement relationship with other minerals, and similarities to the pre-existing minerals enclosed in the porphyroblasts and the matrices of granites, it is suggested that the potash feldspar porphyroblasts wore formed b...
