Abstract

Characterization and identification of Maitara Island clay have been carried out. This study aims to determine the types of minerals contained in the Maitara Island clay. The analytical methods used include X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF) to determine the chemical composition of Maitara Island clay, X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) for mineralogical analysis of Maitara Island clay, Fourier Transmission Infra Red (FTIR) to determine the types of vibrations that exist between the atoms in clay minerals from Maitara Island, and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) to determine the morphology of clay minerals. XRF analysis showed that silica was the element found to dominate the clay minerals with a percentage of 40.79%. Moreover, the highest oxide component found was SiO2 with a percentage of 87.25%. XRD analysis indicated that the Maitara Island clay minerals are composed of montmorillonite, magmatite, aluminum oxide colondrum, cristobalite, lime, titanium oxide, and hematite. The results of FTIR analysis denoted the presence of silica as silanol and siloxane. SEM images showed angular grains which signified silica as the main component in the clay minerals of Maitara Island
