Feldspar- Potassium
Feldspar is a naturally occurring silicate mineral. Silicate minerals are formed by the bonding of silicon and oxygen molecules. When other ions like aluminum, sodium, potassium, lithium, and calcium are introduced into this structure, they create Feldspar mineral.
When pure silicate minerals bond with these ions, they form new structures that can accommodate sodium, potassium, and other elements. This process leads to the formation of various types and varieties of feldspar.
Feldspar minerals typically appear in white or pink, depending on the specific ions present within the silicate structure.
