The clay component of the clay/graphene composites could be leached out to obtain exfoliated graphite.

Those Harvey-Waroona soil stocks were long since gone and Maley's black-soil replacement looked OK to begin with (plenty of the vital clay component required) but was soon found to contain too much sodium.

MnAl hydrotalcite-like compound was used as the precursor of the active phase, while synthetic smectite Laponite RD, either in sodium form (Na-L) or as an organoclay, exchanged with cetyltrimethylammonium cations (CTA-L), served as the clay component.

Namely, samples with a larger clay component were inferred to have higher absolute concentrations of REE but have less distinctive patterns.

It is concluded that most of the smectite clays in the weathered clay soils were inherited from the parent mudstone (with little or no transformation) and that these clay components were likely to have been present in the sediments from which the mudstone formed.

In earth pigments, the main chromophore responsible for imparting the colour can be a non-clay component like the oxides of iron (hematite, goethite, magnetite) or chromogenous elements (like Fe2+ or Fe3+) in the structure of the clay components, as is the case with green earth materials (glauconite, celadonite, smectites and chlorites) [20, 31].
