Sedimentary-Weathering Type Kaolin Deposits And Their Characteristics |

Abstract:Arenaceous kaolin deposits occurring in Terti aryand Quaternary sediments along the coastal area of South China discovered in recent years, are great in size, shallow in buried depth and fine in ore quality. They are of a new type and might be called sedimentary-weathering type kaolin deposits. Mineral deposits of this type show distinct characteristics in such aspects as minerogenic geological conditions, mineral composition, mineralogy, grain size distribution and industrial uses. They were formed through the further weathering of weathered or semi-weathered materials of granite and acid volcanic rocks similar to granite in composition which had already been transported for a short distance by river into the acid sedimentary basin. During the late-stage weathering process, the weathered materials were further converted into kaolinite as a result of the action of acid media in the basin.Kaolin deposits are quite simple in mineral composition and consist mainly of kaolinite and quartz. Dressed kaolin contains as high as over 92 percent of kaolinite which is well crystallized and mostly assumes flaky microcrystals (<1m). In contrast to this type, kaolimte in sedimentary type kaolin deposits is commonly converted into b--axis disordered one as a result of transportation. Chemical analysis shows that in kaolin, Fe2O3<1%, TiO2<0.5%, and in elaborately dressed kaolin, Fe2O3<0.5%, TiO2<0.3%, and Al203 and SiO2 are as high as 38%and 45%respectively, which cause the kaolin to have relatively high natural whiteness. Grain size distribution indicates that its average grain sizes are in the range of 2-6 m with the proportion of <3m reaching some 50 percent. With these characteristics, the kaolin demonstrates good quality in paper coating industry. Its viscosity is as high as 67-72% (0.5 Pa) and its brightness >87%. Experiments show that this type of kaolin is an ideal material for paper coating. |
