“…Hal is a 1:1 aluminosilicate mineral with the empirical formula Al 2 Si 2 O 5 (OH) 4 , the typical diffraction peaks of Hal are observed at 2 θ = 12.3, 18.3, 20.2, 24.8°, and the diffraction peaks of quartz are located at 2 θ = 20.8, 26.7, and 36.6° (Figure 4A) (Philip et al, 2017). Figure 4B gives XRD pattern of Mt, its characteristic diffraction peaks are located at 2 θ = 5.9, 19.7, and 35.1°, while the diffraction peaks at 2 θ = 12.5 and 17.5° are attributed to illite (Wang et al, 2016; Liang et al, 2017). Dic is a kind of layered silicate mineral, and pertains to 1:1 type of Kaol subgroup.…”
