Other Details:

Ball Clay is an extremely rare mineral found in very few places around the world. Ball clays are sedimentary in origin
Ancient rivers and streams washed kaolinite (formed from decomposed granite) from its pardescriptionent rock. as the streams flowed from upland area they mixed with other clay minerals, sands, and vegetation before settling in low-lying basins to form overlaying seams of ball clay
Ball clays usually contain three dominant minerals: from 20-80% kaolinite, 10-25% mica, and 6-65% quartz. in addition, there are other 'accessory' minerals and some carbonaceous material (derived from ancient plants) present. the wide variation both in mineral composition and in the size of the clay particles results in different characteristics for individual clay seams within a deposit
As a result of their sedimentary origin, raw ball clays have a wide range of colors. however, many of them are valued by the ceramics industry for their white-firing properties, which are determined by the levels of iron and other coloring/fluxing oxides within the clay
