No. 4 Geological Party, Hubei Bureau of Geology and Mineral esources, X ianning 437 00, China Abstract:Palygorskite in the late Oligocene sediments at Dongxiang, Linxia, northw estern China w as investigated by using X-ray diffraction (XRD)and scanning electron microscopy (S EM). The results show that authigenic palygorskite occurs in the late Oligocene sediments, and t race amount of det rital palygorskite also can be found in the deposits. The authigenic p-a lygorskite is present as silk-like aggregates w ith thin and long morphology, replacing the I/S mixed-layers along the plate ed- ges, w hile the detrital palygorskite shows relatively straight fibers, occurring as a single particle in mixture w ith other fin-e grained clay or covering on the surface of plated clay . Clay mineral assemblages of the lower section, the middle section, and the upper section of the late Oligocene sediments are illite, I /S mixe-d layers, and kaolinite, illite and I/S mixe-d layers, and illite, I/S mixed-layers, and chlorite, respectively, indicating the climatic evolution from humidity to aridity . The amount of paly
