MANAGING ALKALINE CLAY SOILS ... Its soils are a black, alkaline, calcium-saturated, smectite clay, sometimes referred to as "gumbo," which developed from the Austin chalk formation and the volcanic ash that adulterated those carbonates as they were deposited in the shallow Cretaceous-age seas.

The structures of the clay minerals are reasonably well known, but greater detail and more precision are needed if the properties of clays and soils are to be fully understood. ... For example, the selective adsorptive and catalytic properties and the reaction with organic materials vary with the character of the clay mineral,

There are temporal and geographic variations in the clay mineral assemblages in the mudrocks as a result of these controls. There are also clay-rich rocks that differ from the normal mudrocks and a knowledge of the clay mineralogy of these is a necessary prerequisite to a full understanding of their origins.
