Crystal Chemistry of Three Volcanic K-rich Nepheline Samples From Oldoinyo Lengai, Tanzania and Mount Nyiragongo, Eastern Congo, Africa

Natural nepheline (Nph) samples are intermediate members of solid solutions that extend from the pure Na end-member Na[AlSiO4] to the pure K end-member K[AlSiO4] (=kalsilite, Kls). We examined two volcanic nepheline (ideally, K2Na6[Al8Si8O32] or Nph0.75Kls0.25) samples from Oldoinyo Lengai, Tanzania...
