Extract

Montmorillonites from various parts of the world have been tested. The main interest was focussed on the colloidal sections of the clay from which the heavy impurities were separated by dispersion and sedimentation. Use was made of the gold-shadow technique first described by Wyckoff to estimate the thickness of plates from the angle of shadowing.
