Abstract

Sepiolites are rare minerals in Great Britain, there being hitherto only two recorded occurrences. The identity of the present sample has been established by means of X-ray diffraction, differential thermal analysis, thermogravimetry, chemical analysis, and infra-red absorption analysis, and some speculations on its genesis are offered.
