Distillation • Start with a partially fermented product (containing some EtOH) • Through a process of heating, vapor production, and condensation, solution with higher EtOH% is produced… • HOW??
Magma • Differentiate magma based on it’s chemical composition felsic vs. mafic
Melt Composition + ‘freezing’ T • Liquid magma freezes into crystals the composition of what freezes first is governed by the melt’s composition • Analogous to the composition of seawater ice icebergs are composed of pure water; pure water freezes first, leaving the concentrated brine behind • In magmas More silica = lower T; more Ca, Mg=higher T • Silica polymerization also affected by T and how much Si there is!
Liquid hot MAGMA Mg2+ Na+ Ca2+ Fe2+ O2- O2- O2- O2- O2- O2- Si4+ O2- Si4+ O2- O2- Si4+ O2- • Discontinous series – Structures change, harder to re-equilibrate • Continuous Series plag re-equilibrates quicker and if not is a continuum in composition rather than a change in mineral as T decreases rock Mg2+ Fe2+ cooling Mg2+
Silicate structures: nesosilicates phyllosilicates sorosilicates inosilicates cyclosilictaes tectosilicates
Melt-crystal equilibrium 1 liquidus X • When crystal comes out of melt, some ions go in easier more Ca rich crystals form 1st • Precipitated crystals react with cooling liquid, eventually will re-equilibrate back, totallly cooled magma xstals show same composition • Magma at composition X (30% Ca, 70% Na) cools first xstal bytownite solidus
Melt-crystal equilibrium 1 X • Magma at composition X (30% Ca, 70% Na) cools first crystal bytownite (73% Ca, 27% Na) • This shifts the composition of the remaining melt such that it is more Na-rich (Y) • What would be the next crystal to precipitate? • Finally, the last bit would crystallize from Z Y Z
Melt-crystal equilibrium 1b • Precipitated crystals react with cooling liquid, eventually will re-equilibrate back, totally cooled magma xstals show same composition • UNLESS it cools so quickly the xstal becomes zoned or the early precipitates are segregated and removed from contact with the bulk of the melt
Why aren’t all feldspars zoned? • Kinetics, segregation • IF there is sufficient time, the crystals will re-equilibrate with the magma they are in – and reflect the total Na-Ca content of the magma • IF not, then different minerals of different composition will be present in zoned plagioclase or segregated from each other physically
Melt-crystal equilibrium 2 - miscibility • 2 component mixing and separation chicken soup analogy, cools and separates • Fat and liquid can crystallize separately if cooled slowly • Miscibility Gap – no single phase is stable • SOUP of X composition cooled in fridge Y vs freezer Z 100 SOUP X Temperature (ºC) 50 Y 0 fats ice Miscibility Gap Z -20 10 70 30 50 90 Water Fat % fat in soup

Equilibrium • Need a description of a mineral’s equilibrium with it’s surroundings • For igneous minerals, this equilibrium is with the melt (magma) it forms from or is a representation of the Temperature and Pressure of formation
