The solubilities of andalusite, kyanite, sillimanite, mullite, tridymite and quartz are measured in liquids of the Al 2 O 3 -SiO 2 -Na 3 AlF 6 system at 1010 and 800°C. It is shown that the Gibbs free energy of solid phases in the Al 2 O 3 SiO 2 - system can be simply related to the activity of silica in the liquid with which they are in equilibrium. When a SiO 2 is calculated according to the model of for fused salts the free energy relations in calories are as follows. At 1010°C; sillimanite andalusite, G = 75; sillimanite 1/3 (mullite + tridymit), G = 345; sillimanite corundum + tridymite, G = 1273. At 800°C; sillimanite andalusite, G = 24; sillimanite 1/3 (mullite + quartz), G = 598; sillimanite kyanite, G = 1293; sillimanitemanite corundum + quartz, G = 1341. A pressure-temperature phase equilibrium diagram is calculated for the solid portion of the Al 2 O 3 -SiO 2 system which gives a triple point, andalusitekyanite-sillimanite at approximately 410°C, 2400 bars. The P H 2 O - T equilibrium curve for the reaction muscovite + quartz K-feldspar + sillimanite + H 2 O is found to lie approximately 60-80°C below the curve for the simple breakdown of muscovite.
