About Vermiculite (Raw)
Vermiculite is a hydrated magnesium-aluminum-iron silicate mineral extracted through open-pit mining and processed by exfoliation at high temperatures. It serves critical applications in insulation, refractory products, horticulture, and flame retardants. Internationally traded grades include crude (raw) vermiculite and exfoliated vermiculite in various particle sizes (superfine to coarse). Major producers and exporters are South Africa, Brazil, China, and Russia, with South Africa commanding approximately 40% of global supply. Buyers should verify bulk density specifications and assess moisture content, as these directly impact insulation R-values and downstream processing efficiency in manufacturing applications.
