LONDON - Sunrise Resources Plc has announced the discovery of extensive sepiolite beds in Nevada, USA, following a data package received from Tolsa detailing exploration results. The data ...

Scientists have determined the structure of the highly-absorbent mineral used in cat litter, and may now be able to produce a synthetic version that could be used in many other applications.

Sepiolite is a porous clay material used for example in cat litter that absorbs more liquid than any other known mineral. A Franco-Spanish team of scientists has analyzed twenty different ...

Sepiolite's high-temperature lubricity and excellent wear resistance led to outstanding braking performance, allowing the prepared copper-based brake pads to operate at 380 km/h.

The sepiolite morphology at Pioche, disclosed by SEM, is similar to Amargosa Valley sepiolite and will likely require similar established processing techniques.

Sunrise Resources plc is pleased to provide the following update on Tolsa's 2024 drilling plans for the Pioche Sepiolite Project in Nevada, USA: Ø Project under option to world's largest ...

Scientists from Spain and France have obtained the first single-crystal X-ray diffraction images of sepiolite, opening the path to the industrial synthesis and further improvement of its properties.

They found that sepiolite, a naturally occurring clay mineral largely composed of silicon, magnesium and oxygen, can be used without any alterations as a scaffold layer in a perovskite solar cell.

The Pioche Sepiolite Project, managed by Sunrise after Tolsa’s withdrawal, spans several square kilometers where sepiolite has been identified through surface sampling and drilling.
