Abstract
After silicon and oxygen, aluminum is the most abundant element in silicate melts. As numerous leucogranites and rhyolites formed by partial melting of crustal rocks are peraluminous1 (e.g., White and Chappell 1977; Clarke 1981; Clemens and Wall 1981), it is of great interest to know experimentally the effect of normative A12O3 on phase relations and on properties of alumino-silicate melts.
