PRODUCT PURITY

Analysis by X-Ray diffraction by certified laboratories and other tests suggest 80% clinopotilolite content for Zeolite with thc remaining material primarily inert volcanic ash and sediments. Clay and other mineral varieties arc detectable only in minute quantities. This product docs not contain Eronite and is tested under our Quality control programs to assure consistency.

SAFE HANDLING AND USE

STEPS TO B E TAKEN IN CASE MATERIAL IS RELEASED OR SPILLED: It is recommended to ensure Compliance with various state and/or federal regulations that any significant quantities spilled in surface waters be reported to appropriate state or federal officials.

WASTE DISPOSAL METHODS: Spills should be cleaned up in a manner that does not generate dust and disposed of in a landfill. If raw material has been treated with toxic or hazardous substance material should be disposed of accordingly

PRECAUTIONS TO BE TAKEN IN HANDLING AND STORAGE: Avoid breathing Nuisance dust.

OTHER PRECAUTIONS: None

ENVIRONMENTAL PROPERTIES

Zeolites are natural, inert, nontoxic, substances which are federally classified as GRAS (Generally Regarded As Safe) in most applications and exempted from most regulations and reporting when used in accordance with good agricultural practice and less than 2% in animal feed products.(40 CPR, Part 180.1001 and elsewhere ~ AIM's Zeolites are USDA approved as an absorbent in food processing applications and are in EPA compliance. No fibrous silicates have been detected and crystalline silca is present in quantities of less than 0.01 %. Reference MSDS Sheet for additional information.
