Introduction
The Laboratory of the Clay Minerals Research Group (ClayLab) is one of few in the world and the only one in Poland, fully equipped with all tools used to study minerals in the group of layered aluminosilicates. The laboratory deals with structural, quantitative, and qualitative analysis of rocks and soils containing clay minerals. Besides, the laboratory conducts research on the potential of high-pressure methane adsorption on shale and coal samples, geochronological measurements of rocks and silicate minerals, research on thermal transformations of minerals, supporting the interpretation of results by molecular modeling. ClayLab team consists of highly qualified members, who have the latest laboratory equipment and a cutting-edge science at their disposal.
