    Zeolite: A gift from the depths of the earth


    When hot lava ash sank to the damp ground or into the sea during volcanic eruptions in prehistoric times, it combined with the heated water. Numerous minerals emerged from this forced combination, including zeolite. At 93%, our zeolite contains a very large proportion of volcanic clinoptilolite, which has an enormous increase in surface area. This makes the powder an excellent binding agent.


    What is zeolite?


    Its name, coined as early as 1756, is made up of the Greek zéō for "boiling" and lithos for "stone". The made-up word, invented by the Swedish mineralogist Axel Fredrik, describes the "effervescent" behaviour of the mineral in connection with heating: if zeolite is heated with a blowtorch, the water bound inside is released very dynamically and the mineral becomes a "boiling stone".


    The hero of rocks: clinoptilolite zeolite


    Around 60 types of this volcanic rock occur in nature, which are categorised into three types according to their structure:

    • Leaf zeolites (flaky)
    • Fibrous zeolites (fibrous)
    • Cube zeolites (crystalline)

    The latter also includes clinoptilolite, which is the only one of the many zeolite forms that is relevant for the human organism. Its inner framework consists of microscopically small cavities, cages and channels. Thanks to this unique microporous structure, one gram of zeolite can have a surface area of over 1,000 square metres.


    Clinoptilolite: attractive and relatable


    Clinoptilolite consists mainly of silicon and aluminium atoms held together by oxygen atoms. Considering its extraordinary bonding properties, zeolite could confidently be called one of the most relational and attractive minerals that have ever enriched our planet. In practice, zeolite powder acts like a sponge: when dry, it absorbs a lot of moisture together with other substances, such as toxins or pollutants, and stores them in the hollow spaces. The cations and water molecules stored there can exchange ions and absorb and release substances.


    Spongy structure


    The tuff rock celebrated a breakthrough on the international stage during the less favourable events: It was used in the reactor accidents in Chernobyl and Fukushima and prevented the massive spread of radioactive substances thanks to its exceptional binding capacity. Its sponge-like structure allows it to bind and transport substances: Clinoptilolite attracts certain substances, while others are repelled. The ultra-fine ground powder absorbs heavy metals such as lead, mercury or nickel, as well as pesticides or mould toxins, and releases calcium, magnesium or potassium.


    Differences between zeolite and bentonite


    When zeolite is mentioned, bentonite is also often mentioned. However, despite numerous similarities, both minerals are independent players. Zeolite has a crystalline structure, whereas bentonite has a layered structure. When bentonite comes into contact with water, the clay forms a slimy film, which is not the case with clinoptilolite. Bentonite is also a bit of a megalomaniac and can increase its volume ten to twelvefold. Zeolite hardly inflates at all, but remains compact.
