Geology and mineralogy of kaolin deposits and kaolinitic clay deposits are reviewed. They are classified as follows.1. Deposits of primary kaolin1.1 Deposits of combined hydrothermal-weathering origin1.2 Residual deposits mainly formed by tropical weathering1.3 Solfataric deposits formed by shallow hydrothermal action2. Deposits accompanied by sandy sediments2.1 Sedimentary kaolin deposits2.2 Kaolinitic sand with kaolinization either before or after sedimentation3. Kaolinitic clay deposits accompanied by coal or lignite3.1 Ball clay, i. e., plastic carbonaceous clay3.2 Fireclay including high-alumina fireclay and flint clay3.3 Tonstein and allied clay of volcanic-ash origin
