    NOTES—; fragments. Quartz is the most common mineral. A substantial percentage of feldspar is present. Highly altered feldspar is common; a portion of the altered grains is essentially aggregates of clay minerals. Some of the feldspar grains appear quite fresh. Pyroxene is an important accessory mineral.
