Synopsis
Excerpt from The Decomposition of the Feldspars
The stronger mineral acids and also various organic and humus acids have been supposed to aid in the k'aolinizing action. Such assumptions do not appear to be necessary or warranted in the light of late laboratory investigations. As a matter of fact dilute hydro chloric acid extracts very little more potash than does water alone. It is now well known that many glasses are more readily acted on by water than they are by acid solutions. The complex silicates, of which the feldspars are a type, are mainly insoluble, even in strong mineral acids, and the explanation of their natural decomposition as due to the action of carbonic, humus, and other weak acids is not satisfactory.
