Iridescent labradorite plagioclase is “environmental mineral” that can control carbon element. The recent analytical electron microscopic observations reveal that carbon element is detected in lamellar texture with higher carbon at Ca-rich lamellar parts. Possible carbon sources are expected from biological fossil and limestone (local geology) near the samples as well as air-water environments.
