It is possible that greater porosity in shale beds could be achieved by chemical comminution of the shale. For example, the treatment of western oil shales with acid solutions might result in comminution by inducing corrosive stress fracture of the carbonate rock. Chemical engineering research in this area, as well in the elucidation of oil-rock interactions, might provide insights for new strategies for oil shale production.

In this contribution I present the preliminary results of an investigation into the alteration signature of the Rosebery Hanging wall shale, using an expanded whole-rock chemical dataset and trace element analyses of pyrite and pyrrhotite, the major sulfide minerals in the shale.

Feldspars are common aluminosilicate minerals that are present in many different igneous rocks including granites and rhyolites [11], When exposed, these rocks are susceptible to physical and chemical attack. Water, along with the sun, plant roots, and other forces physically attack rock formations causing crevice formation and fracture [3], Water also attacks rocks chemically. Over time, anhydrous aluminosilicate compounds such as those present in igneous minerals react with water to form hydrated species [20], The classic chemical reaction for clay formation involves the decomposition of potash feldspar due to the action of water-containing dissolved C02 to form kaolinite (insoluble) and soluble ionic species (Reaction 1) [14],...

The total The total alkalis- ilica diagram is one of the most useful classification schemes alkalis-silica available for volcanic rocks. Chemical data — the sum of the Na20 and K2O diagram (TAS) content (total alkalis, TA) and the S1O2 content (S) — are taken directly from a rock analysis as wt% oxides and plotted onto the classification diagram.
