    Definition naturally occurring fine grained clay, commonly consisting of 20-80% kaolinite, 10-25% mica and 6-65% quartz, usually light in colour and highly plastic Reference "COM-EN, based on:- Wikipedia > Ball clay. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ball_clay - Byron Arts > Ceramics and Pottery Definitions. http://www.byronarts.com/ceramics_definitions.htm [18.1.2011]"
    Comment "Ball clays are relatively scarce deposits due to the combination of geological factors needed for their formation and preservation. They are mined in parts of the Eastern United States and from three sites in Devon and Dorset in South West England. They are commonly used in the construction of many ceramic articles, where their primary role is to either to impart plasticity or to aid rheological stability during the shaping processes.Note ref.: Wikipedia > Ball clay. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ball_clay [18.1.2011]"

    Definition fine-grained metamorphic rock formed by the reconstitution of fine-grained, parent sedimentary rocks, such as mudstones or shales Reference "Britannica, The Editors of Encyclopaedia. ""phyllite"" (22.11.2022). Encyclopedia Britannica, 16 Jan. 2009"
    Comment "Phyllite is a metamorphic rock form intermediate between 'slate' and 'schist'. It consists of platy minerals that are larger than those in slate, but still too small to be clearly discernable to the naked eye. Similar in appearance to slate, it is distinguished from slate by a glossy sheen compared to the dull appearance of slate. It usually exhibits cleavage, but not with the regularity of slate. Its composition is mainly very fine crystals of muscovite or chlorite."

    Comment It contains 2 % to 5 % water. The clay and water act as the binder, holding the sand grains together. The carbonaceous materials burn off when the molten metal is poured into the mould, creating a reducing atmosphere which prevents the metal from oxidising as it solidifies.

'Mineralogical and Thermal Characterization of Kaolinitic Clays from Terra Alta (Catalonia, Spain)' (4.7.2023). Minerals 2020, 10(2), 142"
    Comment A technological classification of kaolinitic clays according to their possible applications distinguishes between ball clays, brick clays, fire or refractory clays, flint clays, bloating clays and underclays. Other classifications include more classes, such as light-firing clays, low-grade kaolins, high-grade kaolins, raw kaolins, kaolinitic loams, ball clays and dark-firing clays.
