The effects of pH and time on the formation of hydroxy-Al, Fe,
and Mg interlayer were compared for montmorillonite and vermiculite.
The stability of interlayers was evaluated by sequentially increasing
the severity of dissolution treatments and by subjecting the inter-layers to an HC1 treatment. The interlayer formation and stability
were...
The influence of pH (titration method) and of salt concentration
and drying (drying method) upon the formation of synthetic AI, Fe,
and Mg interlayers in montmorillonite and vermiculite was investigated.
Interlayer formation was evaluated by X-ray diffraction
measurements of basal spacings using a natural chlorite for comparison.
The titration method...

The Franciscan Complex accretionary prism was assembled during an similar to 165-m.y.-long period of subduction of Pacific Ocean plates beneath the western margin of the North American plate. In such fossil subduction complexes, it is generally difficult to reconstruct details of the accretion of continent-derived sediments and to evaluate the...
New detrital mica ages from the Umpqua Group of the Oregon Coast Range provide constraints on models of Eocene sedimentation. Based on sandstone petrography, previous studies assert that the Klamath Mountains to the south are the most likely source region for Umpqua Group sedimentary provenance. However, the presence of Late...
A study was conducted to investigate the nature of hydroxy
interlayers in the chlorite-like intergrade clays of three Oregon
soils with respect to kind, amount, stability, and conditions of
formation.
The clays of the Hembre, Wren, and Lookout soils, selected to
represent weathering products originating from basaltic materials
under humid,...
