The feldspars are a family of silicate minerals which occur in igneous rocks. There are many different members to the feldspar group. Obviously, silicon and oxygen form the foundation for the group, but calcium, sodium, and potassium are also present.One of these elements is usually dominant, but most of the feldspars contain all 3 in varying amounts.bviously, silicon and oxygen form the foundation for the group, but calcium, sodium, and potassium are also present.
