* The cation percentages are then plotted on the cation triangle and the anion percentages on the anion triangle. Thus, the Piper diagram shows the relative proportions of the major ions, but not their absolute concentrations. The information on the two triangles is transferred onto the diamond-shaped plot by constructing a line through the point on the cation triangle (e.g., point A), parallel to the Mg axis. Another line is constructed through the corresponding point A on the anion triangle parallel to the sulfate axis. The intersection of these two lines yields the location of the
