| Note générale : |
The geochimical processes controlling groundwater chemistry in the coal-producing state if southwestern Virginia include hydrolysis of silicates, dissolution of carbonates, oxidation of pyrite, catian exhange and precipitation of secondary minerals, kaolinite and geothite. Core material from the Norton-Formation of the Pennsylvania period is composed of slightly more than one-half sandstone siltstone and minor amounts of shale, clay and coal account for the majority of the remainder. Petrographic analyses and x-ray diffraction studie indicate that the sandstone is about 75 percent quartz, 15 percent plagioclase feldspar, 2 percent potassium feldspar, 2 percent muscovite, 4 percent chlorite and 1 percent siderite... |
