Age and chemical composition of altered basalts

Study of morphology of clay minerals formed in altered submarine basalt flow lava has shown that clay-forming process was a continuous-discontinuous one. Basaltic glass was the most readily replaced and laminar-packet aggregates of smectite were produced. Acicular-globular smectites were also formed from solutions in cavities within basalts.
