[Specific compositional varieties [i.E. Albite, microcline…] are discussed under Mineral Descriptions]. Feldspar occurs in igneous, metamorphic and sedimentary rocks and thus can be found throughout North Carolina. It is more commonly found in igneous and metamorphic rocks of the Blue Ridge and Piedmont provinces. Feldspar weathers to kaolin which is the main clay mineral used in ceramics and fine pottery. Feldspar finds applications in the areas like ceramic tiles, white ware, glazes, glass, porcelain enamel frits, ceramics, filler, welding electrodes and abrasives.
