If components in an early Tertiary "sandstone" was rich in bentonite (derived from volcanics) and relatively rich in potassium feldspar grains, would a more rapid transition to illite occur at a lower temperatures What might that tmperature range be?
Dear Ted, Ted Godo ,
For me, your question is difficult because it requires special knowledge. For me, your question is difficult because it requires special knowledge. Your profile is interesting: It woke up my attention.
I have not worked in the profession for 28 years. In these years I sold Chinese clothes... In my free time, I have discovered the planet erosion phenomenon, developed the gravity theory for it, My view of geology has improved, this is proven by the fact that successful earthquake forecasts can be made with it,

It can also be used in other geology-related research
Here is the answer to your question:

Next to this: a precise concept is needed for the vision of potassium feldspar grains changing to illite... The natural law behind this process must be understood, laboratory tests help a lot in this.
Because you must know that geological phenomena follow a similar natural law, but the circumstances in which they act are very varied, therefore their results are often misunderstood.
