Metasomatic Textures in Granites Evidence from Petrographic Observat
Based on hundreds of thin sections from granite in China, this book introduces metasomatic textures and their formation mechanism in granite. It also proposes that metasomatic textures can basically be classified into two patterns: hetero-oriented replace

Foreword 1
The book “Metasomatic Texture in Granites” is an atlas, in which the authors stress on the exposition of metasomatic textures and their formation mechanisms than other atlases both at home and abroad. In the book the metasomatism of various minerals, including albite, K-feldspar, muscovite, biotite, quartz, beryl, calcite, apatite, etc., is systematically discussed with clear, colored, microscopic pictures and explanations. As a new attempt and development, the authors advance both hetero-oriented and co-oriented patterns of monomineral replacement in granites. The hetero-oriented replacement pattern includes the albitization and the K-feldspathization occurring at grain boundary of plagioclase with K-feldspar and of two K-feldspars, the muscovitization and biotitization at grain boundary of K-feldspar with mica and of two biotites, etc. The co-oriented replacement pattern includes mainly the deanorthitization of plagioclase, co-oriented albitization of K-feldspar, co-oriented muscovitization a
