Study of Material Characteristics about Lower Cambrian Black Shale in ZhiJin-KaiYang-XiFeng, Guizhou

The high cambrian black rock series of clay under Zhijin, Kaiyang, Xifeng and other areas of Guizhou , are high carbon black shale - clay rocks characterized by containing illite ores[1]. After deep processing, it will be served as illite ores belonging to a useful clay minerals, and the main directions of development and application include filler, new building materials and ceramics. After the activation, potassium can be extracted from illite that is often rich in potassium which can be prepared for potash fertilizer. Carrying out the study of mineral material science of high carbon black clay mineral rock , the aim is developing and using this type of non-metallic mineral. Based on this study, recoverying useful metal elements by exploring the reasonable technical process will be significant to enhance the comprehensive value of the type of deposit and improve its economic efficiency.
