5.2 Chemical Weathering. Chemical weathering results from chemical changes to minerals that become unstable when they are exposed to surface conditions. The kinds of changes that take place are highly specific to the mineral and the environmental conditions. Some minerals, like quartz, are virtually unaffected by chemical weathering, while

Calcite may develop in the environment where the rate of dissolution of Ca is higher than the rate of complete breakdown of the pyroxene. As the chemical weathering proceeds further, all the Ca and Mg, and part of the Si are lost, resulting in progressive enrichment of the residue in kaolinite, ferric oxides and oxyhydroxides, and anatase.
