An updated global review of solutional weathering processes and forms in quartz sandstones and quartzites
RAL Wray, F Sauro - Earth-Science Reviews, 2017 - Elsevier
Quartz is considered one of the less soluble minerals of the Earth's crust, and thus hardly
affected by chemical weathering. Despite this, for more than forty years, it is clear that the …
