Scale: Picture size 50 µ-m. The main difference between kaolinite and illite is that kaolinite is a pure clay mineral composed mainly of aluminum, silicon, and oxygen, whereas illite is a non-expanding clay mineral that is a part of the mica group. Kaolinite and illite are both clay minerals but have distinct characteristics and compositions. Key Areas Covered. 1.

Kaolin clay is formed by the chemical weathering of rocks and is mined all over the globe. History and Origin.
