Baseline/MSDS studies of source clays

Baseline studies of the Clay Minerals Society Source Clays

Each of these papers in a special issue of Clays and Clay Minerals covers different aspects of the Source Clays. For example, If you’re interested in ICP-MS results of SWy-2, read the paper by Elzea Kogel and Lewis on pages 387–392.
