Abstract

Mössbauer spectroscopic studies of soils are generally centered around the characterization of Fe3+ oxides, making use of distinctive magnetic properties of the different oxides and the high sensitivity of the technique for magnetically ordered phases. Most work on clays and clay minerals, in contrast, focuses on the determination of the oxidation state of iron, iron structural site occupancies and distortions, and the transformations that take place during clay firing.
