Abstract

Experiments carried out in the author's laboratory on the artificial weathering, in an open system, of potash felspar, albite, leucite, tremolite, olivine, sideromelane, muscovite, and clay minerals are reviewed. The results are assessed, and eventually compared on the basis of the amount of SiO2 removed after leaching with 4 1 solvent.
