Abstract

Leucite was treated at low temperature (< 80°C) with salt or acid solutions whose concentrations ranged from 1 N to 10 −7 N and pH rom 0 to 14. With both chemical data on the different elements released (KAlSi) and mineralogical data (X-ray patterns), it is possible to establish a general picture of leucite alteration. Exchange reactions in phyllite-like and tectosilicate minerals are compared and a parallel is made between the transformations of leucite to analcite and of mica to vermiculite.
