Zeolitización de rocas andesíticas

The study of some andesites from King George Island (South Shetland Islands, Anctartica) has pointed out the existence of a hydrothermal alteration process going rise to a zeolitic secondary minerals of low-temperature assemblages. Two paragenesis have been identified (Smectite-Bytownite-Mordenite,...

Description
Summary:The study of some andesites from King George Island (South Shetland Islands, Anctartica) has pointed out the existence of a hydrothermal alteration process going rise to a zeolitic secondary minerals of low-temperature assemblages. Two paragenesis have been identified (Smectite-Bytownite-Mordenite, Smectite-Albite-Laumontite) which reflecting different conditions durign the hydrothermal alteration of these andesitic rocks El estudio de rocas andesíticas de la Isla King George (Archipiélago de las Shetland del Sur, Antártida) pone de manifiesto la existencia de procesos de alteración hidrotermal con la formación de minerales zeolíticos secundarios pertenecientes a asociaciones de baja temperatura. Se han identificado dos paragénesis (Esmectitas-Bytownita-Mordenita, Esmectitas-AlbitaLaumontita) que reflejan distintas condiciones durante la alteración hidrotermal de dichas rocas andesíticas.
