Similar quartz crystallographic textures in rocks of continental earth’s crust (by neutron diffraction data): III. Relation of quartz texture types with means and conditions of texture formation

Abstract

Examples of different rocks collected in different regions of the continental earth’s crust are presented. Groups of quartz crystallographic textures of the same type are selected for these rocks. The relationship between the types of textures and the physical means and conditions of their formation is analyzed. The effect of the α-β phase transition in quartz on the texture transformations in rocks is considered.
