		china clay, one of the purest of the clays, composed chiefly of the mineral kaolinite usually formed when granite is changed by hydrothermal metamorphism.
		Usage of the terms china clay and kaolin is not well defined; sometimes they are used synonymously for a group of similar clays, and sometimes kaolin refers to those obtained in the United States and china clay to those that are imported.
		China clays have long been used in the ceramic industry, especially in fine porcelains, because they can be easily molded, have a fine texture, and are white when fired.

	The China Clay Industry in Cornwall (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-17)
		China Clay (or Kaolin) is, in simple language, highly decomposed granite, rotted by the action of water.
		China Clay is obtained from open pits by directing on to the sides powerful jets of water which wash away everything in their path.
		Separated, finally, from every trace of sand and impurities, the clay is removed to the "dry," a long, one storied building with a furnace at one end and a tall chimney at the other, by means of which the floor is heated and the surplus moisture extracted.

		China Clay is still Cornwall's largest industry but today only four companies operate pits in the area with an output of three million tons, 80% of which is used in paper.
		Formed from the decomposition of minerals in Granite, china clay (or Kaolin) is the fine white powder that is extracted with the use of water to give a slurry.
		Once the clay started to solidify it would be transferred to the kiln (dry)' and spread over pan tiles to be dried for a couple of days until it could be cut into blocks and stored.

		China clay is a product of the decomposition of granite in the open, weathered joints in which it is dispersed.
		The china clay is then pumped away for processing to remove sand and mica before being prepared for shipment.
		The degree of fragmentation required for china clay extraction is primarily determined by the need to remove the unwanted granite as efficiently as possible.

		Cornish china clay, the raw material used in a wide range of products from cups and plates, baths and basins, to paper and pills, is exported all round the world.
		The clays are processed through the machine, which operates at a field strength of 5 tesla, to reduce iron and thereby improve fired color.
		Clays with a high degree ofwhiteness - for use in the paper industry, for example - and which may need further refining are also processed this way.

		Side doors were provided as well, so that either clay could be unloaded by hand, or the wagon could carry china clay in wooden barrels, which was quite common at the time they were built.
		On the china clay design this caused a problem, because on one side this coincided with the end door, and in service this lever would soon gum up with spilt clay.
		Other GWR china clay wagons are preserved at Keighley and Worth Valley, Dean Forest, Severn Valley, Swindon and Cricklade Railways and at Didcot Railway Centre.

	A Cornish China Clay Pit Tally
		This is the only check that I've come across relating to the Cornish China clay industry, not that I'm particularly a collector of them, and I wondered if any of the keener collectors have any, as there seems to be an interesting story of the use of the check I have.
		The Cornish clay pits don't have any underground workings (unlike the Devon ball clay ones) and so checks were not issued for the usual purpose of controlling and monitoring the movements of men into and out of the underground workings.
		There isn't much that John Tonkin doesn't know about the china clay industry, having worked in it for much of his life, and he is at a loss to come up with any other explanation for the checks.
