Summary

While undergoing 'dry' homogenization at 980°C the 2̄01 X-ray reflections of sodic lowalbite- microcline microperthites show that phase compositions recapitulate (but in a reverse timesense) the unmixing history of ordered feldspars about a solvus with a critical composition near 26 mole per cent KAlSi3O8.
