Summary

  1. 1.

    The properties of the investigated natural minerals depend on their composition, structure, and genesis. A knowledge of these three factors is an essential condition for the correct evaluation of qualities and properties of mined specimens of minerals.

  2. 2.

    With the modern state of our knowledge it is essential to use complex methods for studying minerals, since in this way more complete and reliable results are obtained.

  3. 3.

    A comparative study of natural alumosilicates with regard to catalytic properties both in the natural form and with preliminary activation by acids has made it possible to compare the activities of the studied specimens with one another and with the activity of known natural (gumbrin, Zikeevsk earth, etc.) and synthetic alumosilicate catalysts which are used in industry.

  4. 4.

    A number of specimens of studied natural minerals from deposits occurring close to the place where they are used have shown efficiencies equal to or greater than recognized catalysts, depending on the raw material and process. These substances and their mixtures can be used as catalysts both without activation and with preliminary activation by acids.
