Quartz OSL and TL dating of pottery, burnt clay, and …

This study focuses on characterizing the thermoluminescence (TL) and optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) of quartz in burnt clay, pottery, and the sediments unearthed from a Neolithic site, the Beicun site of the Liangzhu culture. It shows that the initial OSL signals (within 0.8 s) of most burnt clay and pottery sherds are not dominated by the fast component.

The Occurrence of Ball Clays in SW England

The geology, types of ball clay, occurrence and extraction methods are different in each of the 3 deposit, but they are all composed of the clay mineral 'kaolinite'. The name 'ball clay' comes from the early working methods, when the clay was cut into cubes using thirting spades, tubils (lumpers in North Devon) and poges.

Recent advances in lithium extraction from lithium-bearing clay …

The research on Li extraction from Li-bearing clay minerals must focus on methods with higher efficiency and lower energy consumption, compared to the industrialized H 2 SO 4 method (Swain, 2017). To achieve this, the roasting of clays with carbonates and sulfate must be carried out at lower temperatures to avoid energy-intensive phase transfer.
