Abstract
IN the course of an investigation of the bentonite beds in the Ordovician strata at Kinnekulle, Sweden, it became evident that the main part of these beds was composed of clay minerals belonging to the type of ‘mixed layer’ minerals that have random interstratification of illite and montmorillonite layers. The bentonite beds have been described in a paper by Waern et al. 1 by Thorslund, who also collected the materials used in this investigation partly from the two upper thin beds with a thickness of about 1 ft. each, and partly from the lower bentonite bed, which has a thickness of as much as 6 ft.
