secondary mineral
secondary mineral A
mineral formed by the subsolidus alteration of a pre-existing
primary mineral in an
igneous rock. Minerals which have crystallized from a
magma are stable only at high temperature and can readily alter to lowtemperature, secondary minerals when a fluid, e.g. water, is introduced into the rock system. The fluid acts as a catalyst to initiate the alteration reaction. Most secondary minerals are hydrated
silicates. A typical example is the alteration of primary
olivine to secondary
chlorite and
serpentine.
