摘要：
Characterization of clay minerals of the Brahmaputra. river sediments within a selected stretch by X-Ray diffraction, differential thermal analysis and Fourier transform infrared spectra has revealed the association of dominant kaolinite with subordinate amount of illite and chlorite. The mineral assemblage, as evidenced from the study, may find its use towards effective understanding of related engineering properties and utilization in flood-management approaches, intimately connected with the lives and properties of the people of Assam.
