Potassium Metasomatism and Diffusion in Cretaceous K-Bentonites From the Disturbed Belt, Northwestern Montana and in the Middle Devonian Tioga K-Bentonite, Eastern u.s.a. (Illite/smectite, Clays, Diagenesis, United States)
Abstract
dc:descriptionThis thesis presents X-ray diffraction, elemental, K/Ar, and petrographic data of K-bentonites and enclosing shales from the Marias River Formation (Late Cretaceous) in the disturbed belt of Montana. The objective of this study is to determine the kind and extent of chemical exchange between bentonite beds and shale host rocks during K-bentonite formation.
