The granulometric compositions of native and acid-activated rocks containing aluminosilicates are compared. It is shown that in water rocks gradually dissolve and the particle size decreases simultaneously, which is associated with the disaggregation of large particles, diffusion of water into the interparticle space, and hydrolysis of aluminosilicates. The effect of acid treatment on the adsorption-structural characteristics of diatomite was investigated. It is shown that analysis of the particle-size distribution can be used for rapid assessment of the performance of acid-activated sedimentary rocks.
