Also known as orthose
Orthoclase, or orthoclase feldspar (endmember formula KAlSi3O8), is an important tectosilicate mineral which forms igneous rock. The name is from the Ancient Greek for "straight fracture", because its two cleavage planes are at right angles to each other. It is a type of alkali feldspar, also known as potassium feldspar or K-spar. The gem known as moonstone (see below) is largely composed of orthoclase.
Orthoclase is a common mineral found in igneous rocks that gets its name from its distinctive right-angled cleavage pattern, and it belongs to a family of minerals called feldspars. It's significant as a major rock-forming mineral and is also the main component of the gemstone moonstone.
