Mineral Constituents and Kaolinite Crystallinity of the <2 μm Fraction of Cretaceous-Paleogene/Neogene Kaolins from Eastern Dahomey and Niger Delta Basins, Nigeria
This study examines the mineral composition and kaolinite crystallinity of Cretaceous and Paleogene/Neogene kaolins from Nigeria based on X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy data of the <2 μm fraction. The purpose of this was to assess the minerals present,...
