Notes
This once popular (but variable) fire clay has not been available for many years. It occurs in many clay body recipes and common substitutes are Hawthorn Bond (likely the best) and AP green fire clay.
Very different chemical analyses have been presented for this material.
For example, another lists SiO2 as 70.8 and Al2O3 and 25.4 with no LOI?
