The Nature of Illite
INTRODUCTION THE NAME illite was proposed by Grim, Bray and Bradley in 1937 for the mica-type mineral occurring in argillaceous sediments. It was specifically stated that "the term is not proposed as a specific mineral name, but as a general term for the clay mineral constituent of argillaceous sediments belonging to the mica group". Abundant research has shown that many soils, clays and shales...
متن کامل2D and 3D high-resolution imaging to reconstruct the microstructure of clay media
Clayrock formations are under consideration to serve as host formation and geological barriers for radioactive waste repositories due to their favorable properties (low permeability, low diffusion coefficient, high retention capacity for radionuclides...). The currently on-going European CATCLAY project (EURATOM FP7) (www.catclay.org) is focused on understanding the fundamental processes govern...
متن کاملCharacterization, Beneficiation and Utilization of the Clay from Cental Bosnia, B&h
Clay from deposit Bilalovac, Central Bosnia, was characterized by chemical, IR, XRD and DTA/TG analysis. The major mineral components are kaolinite, illite, muscovite and quartz. Raw clay may be used for pottery products and terracotta. Clay was beneficiated by wet method removing fraction over 20 μm. Beneficiation process increased content of kaolinite and decreased content of quartz. Benefici...
متن کامل45. Clay Mineralogy of the Lower Cretaceous Deep-Sea Fan, Deep Sea Drilling Project Site 603, Lower Continental Rise Off North Carolina
The clay mineralogy of Lower Cretaceous deep-sea fan sediment in the western North Atlantic is dominated by smectite in most intervals, and by illite in samples from intervals of high sand input. Different intervals of higIt'sand input are enriched in kaolinite. Kaolinite and illite levels do not correlate in this sediment, indicating that the input of each clay type was independent and represe...
متن کاملX-Ray Diffraction Studies Of Some Madhupur Clay Samples Of Savar And Dhaka Of Bangladesh With Especial Emphasis On Clay Minerals
The clay and non-clay minerals have been identified by XRD analysis. The non-clay minerals include quartz, crystobalite, orthoclase, microcline, plagioclase, calcite, siderite and dolomite, and the clay minerals include kaolinite (52.39%), illite (36.39%) and illite-smectite mixed layer minerals (11.21%). Kaolinite is the most dominant component in the clay mineral assemblages. The clay mineral...
