Water saturated with CO 2 at about 25°C was percolated through mixed beds of limestone or marble fragments and montmorillonite, "illite" and kaolinite in polyethylene tubes for six and fortyfive complete runs. The leachates were analysed for SiO 2 , A1 2 O 3 and Fe 2 O 3 , but only SiO 2 was found. The minerals lost SiO 2 in this order: montmorillonite > kaolinite > "illite". The differential removal of SiO 2 during the short period of these experiments suggests a mechanism for the accumulation of bauxite deposits associated with limestones.
