Feldspar is the most abundant mineral group in the Earth's crust. There are more feldspars (60%) than all the other minerals combined in the outer (13-17) km of the crust 1. Feldspars occur in most igneous and metamorphic rocks. They are less common in sedimentary rocks as they tend to break down to clay minerals in the weathering environment.Web

The feldspar-water system is arguably one of the most important in the earth sciences, in particular with respect to chemical weathering associated with water-rock interactions. This is primarily due to the preponderance of feldspar minerals in the upper continental crust and at earth's surface (Klein and Philpotts, 2017).Web

1 Geology. Feldspars form an extensive group of silicate minerals. They constitute about 50% of the Earth's crust, therefore they are found globally in igneous, metamorphic, and sedimentary rocks.
