ABM Beige Light Montmorillonite Clay

ABM Beige Light Montmorillonite Clay is located near Villa Nova Tulo, in the internal part of Sardinia, far from any industrial or human contamination. We can thus proceed to the pre-drying using direct sun, without any risk of contamination. Just like our other clays, it is of highest purity (70 to 75 % of montmorillonite) and features very high absorption and adsorption properties with low heavy metal content, which is therefore suitable for use in food supplements. Besides being certified Cosmos/Ecocert©, this clay offers an excellent microbiological cleanliness thanks to our drying/crushing method, developed long ago by an expert on clays used in medicinal products.

Note: It has to be noted that speaking of a raw mineral chemical analysis is not exactly the same on each part of the quarry without any change of the clay itself. Clays are mainly characterized by X-ray diffraction and cation exchange capacity. By this fact we only give an average value for each component.
