Create Ternary Diagrams
what to deliver ?
- a single, digital, feldspar ternary diagram in either Excel or Sheets – the corners will be Ab, An, and Or
- a self-designed, self-explanatory calculator where feldspar values can be entered into the appropriate cells and ALL the necessary calculations will be done automatically and the data will be plotted as a single point on the ternary diagram. I recommend using colors, boxes, and written instructions to help explain to the user (me) where to enter the data correctly.
- plot the following feldspar compositions on the diagram, AND then using your notes and textbook, tell what type of feldspar each one is :
- An = 5, Ab = 85, Or = 10
- An = 66, Ab = 30, Or = 4
- An = 32, Ab = 67, Or = 1
- An = 2, Ab = 2, Or = 96
- An = 87, Ab = 10, Or = 3
