Biotite Mica : Properties, Formation, Ocurrence and Uses

Biotite: Biotite exhibits excellent basal cleavage, meaning it can be easily split into thin, flexible sheets along its cleavage planes. Muscovite: Muscovite also has excellent basal cleavage, and this property is one of the reasons it is commonly used in the manufacture of thin, transparent sheets known as mica. Common Geological Occurrences:

Characterization of biotite and amphibole compositions in granites

Accessory and minor phases are frequently used to infer the composition and intensive parameters of magmas. In granites, the most common ferromagnesian phases are biotite and amphibole, which raises the question as to what compositional domains are present among these phases and how do those domains relate to granite composition. Here we …
