diatomite Explanation: Słownik Geologiczny Żyłki. Magda -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2003-01-18 20:44:46 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Diatomite, or Bann clay as it is known locally, is made up of the remains of algae that grew in shallow flooded areas. The diatomite material is made up of the silica cases of many different species of diatom (green algae) that have decayed leaving only their hard outer cases behind. Diatomite occurs at locations all along the Lower Bann from Toome to the Ree downstream http://www.loughneagh.com/diatomite.htm |
