Proposes a new idea to explain metasomatic textures and their formation mechanism in granite
Illustrates metasomatic mechanisms and superimposed metasomatic processes clearly with a series of color microphotos taken with quartz plate under crossed polars
Provides details of the origins of many phenomena, such as clear albite rim, intergranular swapped albite, K-feldspathization, quartzification, muscovitization, beryllization, myrmekite, small platy albite, perthitic albite and K-feldspar megacryst
