Seck (1971b) Contrib Mineral Petrol 31:67-86 Ghiorso (1984) In this paper Ghiorso expanded the Al-avoidance configurational entropy model of Kerrick and Darken (1975) and Newton et al. (1980) to ternary feldspars. The Kerrick and Darken approach is intended to provide an approximation of the ideal part of the activity when mixing takes place with charge balance constraints. We know this as coupled substitution. These moels for the ideal part of the activity give larger negative values to the entropy of mixing term (-T∆Smix). Ghiorso used the constraints from all three equilibria to estimate equilibration temperature. Ghiorso's analysis of Seck's (1971) experimental data resulted in a negative Ws term for the Woran excess parameter. Green and Udansky (1986) In this paper Seck's 1, 5 and 10 kbar data were used to derive a Wv term for the An-Or excess free energy term. The magmitude of this term was large and led Green and Udansky and others to suggest a pressure sensitivity to feldspar equilibria. Therefore, coexisting feldspars might serve as a barometer and a thermometer. Stormer and Whitney (1985) estimated a pressure for the Fish Canyon tuff of 8 to 9 kbar (24-27 km depth). They cite a pressure dependence of 18 oC/kbar on feldspar equilibria. This pressure dependency comes from Brown and Parsons (1981) CMP 76:369-377. B&P fit a pressure dependency to the Ab-Or solvus using a variety of experimental data, and derive this pressure dependency. Fuhrman and Lindsley (1988) In response to the G&U and S&W papers, F&L remodeled the Seck 1 kbar experimental data. Their contribution to evolution of these models was to fit x-ray data for ternary feldspars to derive an expression for Wv. They also evaluate critically the utility of two feldspar thermometry and provide a calculation procedure for estimating two-feldspar temperatures. Elkins and Grove (1990) New experimental data on coexisting ternary feldspars and a model for excess free energy that uses the simpler XlnX formulation for -T∆Smix.
