The use of mechanical analysis in the
correlation of Cretaceous Bentonites
and metzbentonites in eastern
Colorado.
Discusses use of bentonites in correlation,
describes pipette method of mechanical
analysis. Among literature cited
on methods of correlation etc
following should be consulted:

bentonite and related clays and
their physical properties.

p p 77-96

Ordovician bentonites. Jour. Geol.

on bentonite. Min+Met. Vol.7
