The stability and phase relations of iron chlorite below 8.5 kb $$P_{{\text{H}}_{\text{2}} {\text{O}}}$$

TL;DR: In this article, the relationship between iron cordierite and almandine in this system is discussed, and it is shown that at temperatures 50 °C greater and along a parallel curve, Almandine is unstable below approximately 4 kb for temperatures to approximately 750 °C.

Sedimentological Aspects and Environmental Conditions Recognized from the Bottom Sediments of Al-Kharrar Lagoon, Eastern Red Sea Coastal Plain, Saudi Arabia

Saudi Arabia
TL;DR: Al-Kharrar Lagoon, north of Jeddah is a subtropical lagoon on the Red Sea coastal plain and an attempt has been made to study the textural composition and the gross mineralogy of the bottom sediments as discussed by the authors.

Weathering of chlorite and some associations of trace elements in Permian phyllites in Southeast Queensland

TL;DR: In this paper, a vertical section, 12 m deep, in Permian phyllites was examined with the aim of studying the changes which take place in the mineral suite on weathering of the phyllite from fresh rock to the weathered material existing as shaly chips in the surface soil.

The mineralogy of tropical weathering illustrated by some west malaysian soils

TL;DR: The results of an investigation into the formation, mineralogy and plasticity properties of some soils formed on basalt, granite, shale and sandstone in west Malaysia were presented in this paper.
