    NOTES—; fragments. a portion of the altered grains is essentially aggregates of clay minerals. Some of the feldspar grains appears quite fresh. Quartz increases towards the soil surface mainly at the expense of the highly altered feldspar. (Method 7B1). Area is being used for limited livestock pasture.
