    The Tuluanshan Formation of the eastern Coastal Range of Taiwan overlies an andesitic core complex presumed to be the source of hydrothermal fluids responsible for the Si- and Mg-rich mineralization of sepiolite and ...
  • Derkowski, Arkadiusz; Srodon, Jan; Franus, Wojciech; Uhlik, Peter; Banas, Michał; Zielinski, Grzegorz; Caplovicova, Maria; Franus, Małgorzata (The Clay Minerals Society, 2009)
    The K-Ar dating of glauconite has been used as an important stratigraphic tool for many decades. The application of this technique is limited to pure glauconites, free of detrital contamination by K-bearing phases, often ...
  • Rytwo, Giora; Gonen, Yotam; Huterer-Shveky, Reuma (The Clay Minerals Society, 2009)
    Syntheticdyes in industrial effluents pose a significant risk to human health and the environment, so much effort has been expended to degrade them using various methods, including the use of clay minerals as catalysts. ...
  • Papoulis, Dimitrios; Tsolis-Katagas, Panagiota; Kalampounias, Angelos G.; Tsikouras, Basilios (The Clay Minerals Society, 2009)
    Occurrences of halloysite-rich material in altered volcanic rocks, principally trachyandesites, dacites, and tuffs, extend over an area of ~1 km2 in the southwestern part of Limnos, Island, northeast Aegean Sea, Greece. ...
  • Eick, Matthew J.; Luxton, Todd P.; Welsh, Holly A. (The Clay Minerals Society, 2009)
    Numerous studies have investigated the ligand-promoted dissolution of Fe (oxyhydr)oxides. In natural environments, inorganic ligands can compete with organic ligands for surface sites on (oxyhydr)oxides which may influence ...
  • Jozefaciuk, Grzegorz (The Clay Minerals Society, 2009)
    The size, shape, and continuity of pores in mineral solids greatly influence the behavior of percolating liquids and solids in porous media, which has significant practical environmental implications. In order to expand ...
  • Hong, Hanlie; Li, Zhaohui (The Clay Minerals Society, 2009)
    In spite of many studies of laterite origins in various parts of the world, the origin of laterite in the middle to lower reaches of the Yangtze River is still a topic of debate, thus leaving doubts about the prevailing ...
  • Kohler, Eric; Parra, Teddy; Vidal, Olivier (The Clay Minerals Society, 2009)
    The storage of CO2 in geological reservoirs requires an understanding of the impact of CO2 on clay-rich sealing cap-rocks to identify and explore critical parameters that modify petrophysical properties such as permeability ...
  • Letaief, Sadok; Detellier, Christian (The Clay Minerals Society, 2009)
    The objective of this studywas to design new, functional, nanostructured materials from the abundant claymineral kaolinite, in spite of development problems with the interlayer chemistry of kaolinite because of its ...
  • Srodon, Jan; Zeelmaekers, Edwin; Derkowski, Arkadiusz (The Clay Minerals Society, 2009)
    The nature of component layers of mixed-layer illite-smectite and their possible evolution in the course of illitization have been debated since the 1960s. The present study is a new attempt to solve these problems, using ...
  • Unknown author (The Clay Minerals Society, 2009)
    The following are some papers that have been accepted for publication in future issues of Clays and Clay Minerals.
  • Drits, Victor (The Clay Minerals SocietyThe Clay Minerals Society, 2010)
  • Bujnowski, Thomas J.; Guggenheim, Stephen; Brigatti, Maria Franca (The Clay Minerals Society, 2009)
    Factors controlling the crystal structure of phlogopite have been widely investigated; but the role of electrostatic interactions, for example, has received much less attention than other factors. The purpose of the present ...
  • Dohrmann, R.; Ruping, K.B.; Kleber, M.; Ufer, K.; Jahn, R. (The Clay Minerals Society, 2009)
    In X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, preparation of oriented clay specimens enhances their 00l reflections by arranging basal surfaces parallel to the specimen surface. In one-dimensional modeling of XRD intensities, degree ...
  • Ozdemir, Abdil; Keskin, Can Serkan (The Clay Minerals Society, 2009)
    An important application of clay is as a solid adsorbent for industrial dyes. The aim of the present work was to carry out an experimental-theoretical study of the adsorptionof dye mixtures, namely malachite green (MG) and ...
  • Szabo, Tamas; Wang, Jun; Volodin, Alexander; Van Haesendonck, Chris; Dekany, Imre; Schoonheydt, Robert A. (The Clay Minerals Society, 2009)
    The sizes and shapes of single clay mineral layers are difficult to determine though they are important parameters which determine the final properties of clay polymer nanocomposites and of ultrathin clay mineral films. ...
  • Cui, Haojie; Qiu, Guohong; Feng, Xionghan; Tan, Wenfeng; Liu, Fan (The Clay Minerals Society, 2009)
    Todorokite is a common manganese oxide mineral, with a tunnel structure, found in Earth surface environments, and is easily synthesized from layered birnessite. The aim of the current study was to prepare birnessites with ...
