Point of zero charge of weathered forsterite
The point of zero charge of forsterite shifts from an estimated 8.9 for the unaltered mineral to 8.4 and 8.0, respectively, after being weathered artificially for 1 h and 4 h. These results corroborate the presence of magnesium-deficient surfaces on the weathered minerals, also indicated by chemical analyses of the solutions. H+ and OH− are shown to be potential-determining ions in this system
