Description

Excerpt from Preliminary Report on the Clays of Alabama, Vol. 6 Pure clay or kaolin 'is composed entirely of the min eral kaolinite, which is a hydrated silicate of alumina. It rarely happens, however, that clay is perfectly pure, for owing to the nature Of its formation from another rock as will be explained-later it is very apt to have other minerals mixed in with it. These foreign min erais may sometimes be present in such quantities as to completely mask the character Of the kaolinite.
