Characterisation of halloysite for use as a microtubular drug delivery system.

"Halloysite supplied from New Zealand was shown by electron microscopy to be composed
mainly of hollow microtubules having typical dimensions of 2-3 microm long and 0.3/0.1 microm
outer/inner diameter. Aggregates of microtubules, double tubules and occasional split or partially
unrolled tubules were observed...."

Atlas Mining controls the only known commercial source of halloysite outside of New Zealand:
the Dragon Mine site in Juab County, Utah. Industry experts from The Phlogiston Company concluded
"The grain size and lack of significant impurity make Dragon Mine halloysite superior to products currently
on the market." Scanning electron microscope photos and chemical analysis show that the raw material is
nearly pure halloysite. Therefore, Atlas should have both geographical and qualitative advantage when
serving North American customers.
