Potash Feldspar
A feldspar is typically referred to as 'potash' if there is significantly more potassium than sodium (typically there will be 2-5% Na 2 O ). If the amounts are closer to equal they are termed potash-soda feldspars (or vice versa). Of course, real potash feldspars also have small amounts of CaO, MgO, Fe 2 O 3, etc.
