Wiese Rock type: Igneous Rock Formation Environment: Solidification of mafic magma deep under an oceanic divergent plate boundary and immiscibility occurs in the two other solid solutions at temperatures found in the Earth's crust.Authigenic K-feldspar is a ubiquitous feature of the Bromsgrove Sandstone Formation (Triassic) in Central England. It occurs mainly as partially to completely developed euhedral …The albitization of K-feldspar is a common diagenetic process that has thus far received little attention and is not fully understood in fine-grained sedimentary rocks. To better understand the albitization of K-feldspar
