Abstract
For the first time carried out a systematic study under an electron microscope forms of a complete weathering of quartz in lateritic bauxites on khondalite and alluvial deposits of India. Demonstrated the appearance of dissolving individuals composing the quartz crystals, and their permanent connection with the abundant biomineral films, turned into a druses crystals of gibbsite - Al(OH)3. The solubility of quartz is due to its unique piezoelectric properties, abnormal expansion in inversion, the characteristics of the climate and the intense impact of the biochemical factor (organic residues, bacteria, biofilms, etc.)
