Azomite Australia

A Natural Source of Minerals and Trace Elements

AZOMITE™ USA Mineral Analysis

MINERAL ANALYSIS

Minerals and Trace Elements. The typical analysis set forth below shows that AZOMITE™ contains some of every mineral which textbooks list as beneficial. In addition to these minerals which are recognized as beneficial, AZOMITE™ contains a full suite of trace elements through Molybdenum (excluding gases on right side of the period table).

Mineralogically, the material can be described as rhyolitic tuff breccia. Its uniqueness stems from the multitude of trace minerals found in the deposit. Thus, the trade name, AZOMITE™, the A to Z Of Minerals Including Trace Elements.

Chemically, AZOMITE™ is a hydrated sodium calcium aluminosilicate (HSCAS) containing other minerals and trace elements which the national Research Council recognizes to be essential. HSCAS is listed in the U.S. Code of Federal Regulations (21 CRF 582.2729) as an anticaking agent and is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA.

  • Trace Elements (below) 0.38%    LOI @750o C** 6.43%
  • *The alumina is not biologically available. It is bound to the silica and is an aluminosilicate. Sand, clay, most rock deposits, and soil deposits are primarily aluminosilicates.
  • **LOI - "Loss on Incineration" during the trace analysis by Spark Source Mass Spectrometry.
  • Underlined = essential for most living species of plants and animals
