Extract

In a previous paper (Brindley, 1951) chamosites from a number of localities were examined, and their structure was shown to be of kaolin-type. Furthermore, it was shown that many of the variations in X-ray powder diagrams of chamosites can be accounted for by the existence of two kaolin-type structures, one hexagonal and one monoclinic, with simply related ceil dimensions.
