Abstract
IT is well known that members of the montmorillonite group may be classified into a number of subgroups which differ in isomorphous substitution, having varying proportions of different cations1. Theoretically, a continuous substitution is possible. But although a wide range of substitution is known in clay minerals, a continuous series has not yet been found.
