Abstract

The paper presents the results of petrographic assessment of the occurrence of potentially alkali-reactive silica in gravels from post-glacial deposits located in north-western Poland and north-eastern Germany. The petrographic examination consisted in identifying alkali-reactive minerals and determining the form of their occurrence and content. The post-glacial gravels, which have a varied petrographic composition, are dominated by fragments of crystalline rocks. There are also fragments of lime- stones and sandstones, as well as lesser quantities of siliceous rocks and opal. Gravel grains contain various forms of reactive silica – opal, chalcedony, cryptocrystalline and microcrystalline quartz and strained quartz. Mineral components of the rocks displayed traces of secondary processes, mainly plagioclase kaolinitization and biotite chloritization. The post-glacial gravels were classified as potentially reactive according to the RILEM AAR-1 document. The conducted research confirmed that the petrographic examination is a method that allows one to quickly determine the presence of harmful components, however, when testing aggregates for alkali-reactivity, it should be used in conjunction with other methods.

Keywords:

alkali-reactivity, petrographic examination, post-glacial gravels, reactive minerals, silica, secondary processes.
