Abstract

In the words of Ross and Hendricks (1945), “Clay minerals . . . are the dominant materials of shales and surficial rocks and so are among the most important structural materials of the earth’s surface.” Clay minerals play a significant role in many aspects of life, ranging from their domination of the properties of the soils and sediments beneath us to their ubiquitous commercial use in many products and industries (Newman, 1984; Odom, 1984; Jepson, 1984, 1987). Iron in the crystal structures of these layer silicates significantly affects their physical and chemical properties, and thus is of great importance in the world around us.
