Chlorite

Talc ores differ according to their mineralogical composition, i.e. the type and proportion of associated minerals found alongside the talc. Talc is often found with other minerals such as carbonates, but the most common related mineral is chlorite. Chlorites - from the Greek khloros meaning green - are present in varying proportions (from 2% to 50%) in several Imerys deposits. They are structurally and chemically very similar to talc: talc is a hydrated magnesium silicate and chlorite a hydrated magnesium and aluminum silicate. Each type of chlorite is determined by its aluminum and iron content. Like talc, chlorites are soft, lamellar and organophilic. They are a little more reactive than talc and more hydrophilic.
