Locality type:

Complex

Classification

Species:

Albite var: Anorthoclase

Formula:

(Na,K)AlSi₃O₈

Comments:

The occurrence of anorthoclase was discredited by Tilley (1953). The feldspars in the fine-grained matrix of the grennaite were instead determined to be subsolvus alkali feldspars albite and microcline. This is also confirmed by SEM-EDS analysis (Sjöqvist et al., 2013).
