Abstract

X-ray diffraction experiment of a granular glauconitic clay and the computer simulation of the X-ray diffraction line profile of the clays from the Minamishiraoi Kuroko-type deposit, southwestern Hokkaido, Japan, were carried out to elucidate its mixed layer structure. The mixed layer structure which shows an intermediate property of glauconite and smectite were evaluated to be of a random-type interstratification somewhat deviated from random interstratification towards the direction of segregation structure of glauconite and smectite, through comparison of the measured and the calculated X-ray diffraction line profiles
