· Geology. The key difference between primary and secondary minerals is that primary minerals are formed from primary igneous rocks whereas secondary minerals are formed from weathering of primary rocks. A mineral is a naturally occurring, inorganic solid substance that has a well-ordered chemical structure.

· Propylitic alteration is a type of hydrothermal alteration that occurs in volcanic and plutonic rocks. It is characterized by the alteration of primary minerals, such as feldspar and quartz, to secondary minerals, such as chlorite, epidote, and sericite. Propylitic alteration typically occurs at lower temperatures (less than 200°C) and
