Feldspar Minerals

Abstract

The color of a feldspar can arise either from an intrinsic property of the crystal structure or from light scattering from discrete impurities: in addition some feldspars show iridescence caused by diffraction effects at internal boundaries (see Chapter 8). Probably only two types of feldspar (iron-sanidine and amazonite) show an intrinsic color which is obvious to the naked eye.
