Is AZOMITE® a zeolite or bentonite?
No. Geologists put AZOMITE® in a very broad class known as a “Hydrated Sodium Calcium Alumino-Silicate” (HSCAS) but it is unique because of its chemical make-up. The physical structure, number and abundance of trace elements in AZOMITE® are distinct from any other deposit. An “HSCAS” is such a non-specific classification of mineral deposit that it is akin to calling a Blue Marlin simply a “fish” – a factual statement, but not precise.
