Changes in Mineralogical Composition of Tertiary Sediments from North Sea Wells

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors determined quantitative clay composition by combining X-ray diffraction with normative calculation based on chemical analyses, which indicated two sources for the Pliocene sediments, namely material from Scandinavia containing chlorite and reworked older sediments containing kaolinite.

The nature of contemporary silts in british estuaries

P. Biddle, +1 more
- 01 Jan 1972 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, X-ray diffraction studies showed that the larger particles are almost entirely α-quartz whereas the clay fraction contains a mixture of illite, kaolinite, montmorillonite and chlorite whose composition varies from estuary to estuary.
Journal ArticleDOI

The question of the possible asymmetric polymerization of aspartic acid on kaolinite.

TL;DR: It is unable to confirm the recent report that kaolinite catalyzes the polymerization of aqueousd- andl-aspartic acid at different rates, but no selectivity for one or the other enantiomer was observed.

Geochemical and Mineralogical Changes in Compacted MX-80 Bentonite Submitted to Heat and Water Gradients

TL;DR: In this article, a 20 cm high column of MX-80 bentonite compacted at dry density 1.72 ǫg/cm 3 with an initial water content of 16% was submitted to heating and hydration by opposite ends for 496 days (TH test).
