Chemical and Thermal Characterization of a Clayey Material Found Near Gaborone Dam
Mineralogical studies were carried out on clayey material found near
the water dam in Gaborone city, in Botswana, in order to deduce its
chemical composition. Samples of the material were subjected to
chemical elemental, thermal and cation exchange capacity analyses.
Traces of Kaolinite were found together with quartz and microcline. The
chemical formula was found to be FeSiAl6O10(OH)6
