“…Plagioclase is a principal source of B in common tourmaline-free granites. It contributes up to 69 wt.% of the whole B content in the rock (Sauerer and Troll, 1990). The mica-group minerals, especially muscovite, also represent an important carrier of B among granitic rock-forming minerals, where B substitutes for Al in the tetrahedral site as a boromuscovite molecule (Grew, 2002a).…”
